Answer:

x = 49

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x in the first triangle by applying the leg rule.

Leg rule is given as: hypotenuse/leg = leg/part

Hypotenuse = x

Leg = 28

Part = 16

Plug in the values into the equation

x/28 = 28/16

Cross multiply

x*16 = 28*28

16x = 784

x = 784/16

x = 49

✔️Let's check our answer to see if we would get the same value of x for the other triangle. Apply the same leg rule.

Hypotenuse = x

Leg = 21

Part = 9

Thus:

x/21 = 21/9

Cross multiply

x*9 = 21*21

9x = 441

x = 441/9

x = 49

✔️We have the same value. Therefore, x = 49 is the correct answer.

1Ellen says that 1 2/5 equals 5 ÷7 Is she<br>correct? Explain.​
Anastasy [175]

No she is not because 1 2/5 is a bigger number than 5/7.

1 2/5 in decimal form is 1.4, and 5/7 in decimal form is .714.
