In the Pythagorean Theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2. The measurements provided here are 30, and 18. 30 is c and 18 is either a or b (it doesn’t matter) 30 is c because it is specified as a diagonal. In reverse to the Theorem, it would be 30^2-18^2= a^2 that would be 900-324. You would then square root what you got for “a” to find your answer. It would be 24.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

By the Pythagorean Theorem we know

h^2=x^2+y^2 (where h is the hypotenuse and x and y are sides of a right triangle)

w^2+18^2=30^2

w^2=30^2-18^2

w^2=900-324

w^2=576

w=24 in

What is the name of the rat that is opposite NP?
nignag [31]
<h3>Answer: D) Ray NM</h3>

Ray NP starts at point N as the fixed endpoint and goes off forever in the direction of point P.

The opposite would be to turn 180 degrees and go the other way. So we start at N and instead go off forever toward point M. In either case, the starting point is still the same (point N).

When naming rays, the order is important. Ray NM is different from ray MN. This is because the first letter is the fixed end point (that doesn't go off forever in one direction).
