Make a right triangle by using half the base and using the Pythagorean theorem calculate the height.

Height = sqrt(8^2 - 5^2)

Height = sqrt(64 - 25)

Height = sqrt(39)

Height = 6.245 ( Round the answer as needed).

Order the numbers from least to greatest.<br> 1/8, 5/7, 0.35,0.39, 9/10
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

1/8, 0.35, 0.39, 5/7, 9/10

Step-by-step explanation:

1/8 = 0.125

5/7 = 0.714

0.350

0.390

9/10 = 0.900

now let's order them from least to greatest:

0.125 , 0.350 , 0.390 , 0.714 , 0.900

= 1/8, 0.35, 0.39, 5/7, 9/10

if you have trouble with these types of problems change them all into decimals which will make things easier!

22. The height of a triangle is 4 centimeters less than the base. Write a function that
torisob [31]

The function is y = 1/2 x² - 2 x and the base of the triangle cannot be 3 cm.

let the base of the triangle be x

Height of the triangle = x - 4

Area of triangle = 1/2 × base × height

Area = 1/2 × x × (x-4)

Area = 1/2 (x² - 4x)

Area = 1/2 x² - 2 x

We can also write it as a function:

y = 1/2 x² - 2 x

Domain = (3 , ∞)

Range = [0, ∞)

Since 3 is not included in the domain, base of the triangle cannot be 3 cm.

Therefore, the function is y = 1/2 x² - 2 x and the base of the triangle cannot be 3 cm.

katen-ka-za [31]
