Answer:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2
3^2 + b^2 = 5^2
9 + b^2 = 25
b = _/16
b = 4

Answer:

The length of the other leg will be = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to use your Pythagoras theorem to determine the length of the other leg.

Hypotenuse^2=a^2+b^2

since you are given the length of the hypotenuse and one leg you can change the formula to:

b^2 = h^2 - a^2

b = √h^2-a^2

b=√5^2-3^2

b=√25-9

b=√16

b=4

First we will find the value of x.

To find the value of x we can add angle Q and angle O and set them equal to 180 and solve for x.

We will be setting them equal to 180 since the opposite angles of an inscribed quadrilateral are supplementary.

angle Q + angle O = 180
6x - 5 + x + 17 = 180
7x +12 = 180
7x = 168
x = 24

Now we can use 24 for x and find the value of angle QRO

angle QRO = 2x + 19
angle QRO = 2(24) + 19
angle QRO = 48 + 19
angle QRO = 67

So the answer choice B is the right answer.

Hope this helps :)<span />

Identify two statements that contradict each other.
Ira Lisetskai [31]

If ZM is an obtuse angle (greater than 90), then ZM and ZP will not add up to 90.

If ZP is 120, then ZM and ZP will not add up to 90.

There are multiple contradicting statements within this problem, as noted above.

Hope this helps!

Which of the following shows a group of possible angles a triangle could have?
maw [93]

Answer:

<u><em>D) 50, 60, 70</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason why it's D since a regular triangle equals up to 180 degrees in total and D is the only one that equals 180.

50+60+70= 180 degrees

Chester’s bakery a box of 12 donuts sells for 8.50 what is the unit price of donuts in the box rounded to the nearest cent
Firdavs [7]
Unit price = price for one donut
if 12 donuts cost $8.50, then one donut would be:
$8.50/12 = 0.7083, or about $0.71

Find the surface area of the figure. Round the the nearest hundredth.
Georgia [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

surface area of cylinder=2πrh

SA=1/2×2×π×3×25+2 ×(1/2×π×3²)=75π+9π=84π≈84×3.14≈263.76 cm²

if lowerside is also counted  then area of lower side=25×6=150

total surface area=263.76+150=413.76 cm²

if we take π=22/7

84 π=84×22/7=12×22=264 cm²

if base is also counted then area=264+150=414 cm²
