Find the length of leg a in a right triangle with leg b= 4 and hypotenuse C =5

Mathematics
1 answer:
Korolek [52]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Leg A = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

You use the equation A squared plus B squared equals C squared. Then, you substitute the value that you have, so the equation would be a squared plus 3 squared equals 5 squared. Next, you square the two values to make the equation a squared plus 16 equals 25. After that, you subtract one of the values (which in case is 16) on both that leg value and the hypotenuse, so you are left with A squared equals 9. Finally, you square both 9 and A squared and you are left with A = 3. I hope that helps you understand it clearly!

The ratio of males to females in a cycling club is 5:3.
taurus [48]

Answer:

3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of males to females in a cycling club is 5:3.

1/3 of the males are under 18

2/9 of the females are under 18

The fraction of the club members that are under 18 is calculated as:

Male: Female = Male/Female

We are told in the above question:

1/3 of the males are under 18

2/9 of the females are under 18

Hence:

1/3 / 2/9

= 1/3 ÷ 2/9

= 1/3 × 9/2

= 3/2

The fraction of the club members that are under 18 is 3/2

What is the location of the point on the number line that is 3/5 of the way from a=2 to b=17
makkiz [27]

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance that a is to b is b-a=17-2=15.

The line segment from a=2 to b=17 has length 15.

We need to know what is 3/5 of 15.

3/5 of 15 means what is 3/5 times 15?

(3/5)(15)=3(3)=9

So this means we are looking to make a line segment that is 9 units from 2 which is 2 to 11.

So 11 is 3/5 the way from a=2 to b=17.

Let's check from 2 to 11 that is a length of 9 and from 2 to 17 that is a length of 15.

Is 9/15 equal to 3/5?

Yes, 9/15 can be reduced to 3/5.
