Answer:

in right angled triangle ABC

hypotenuse [h]=65ft

base[b]=xft

height[p]=63ft

by using Pythagoras law

h²=p²+b²

65²=63²+x²

x²=65²-63²

x=√256

x=16feet

so <em><u>the third side of the </u></em><em><u>sail</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>is</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>1</u></em><em><u>6</u></em><em><u>f</u></em><em><u>t</u></em><em><u>.</u></em>

Just divide. 3/4 is 3 divided by 4= .75
75 hundredths is the same as 75%
20/100 20 divided by 100=.20 which is 20%
14 divided by 25 is .56, or 56%
1/5 is 1 divided by 5 = .20 or 20 %

Amanda [17]

Answer:

The probability of making a correct random guess is 0.00053%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Clue is a board game in which you must deduce three details surrounding a murder, and in the original game of Clue, the guilty person can be chosen from 66 people, and there are 66 different possible weapons and 99 possible rooms, and at one point in the game, you have narrowed the possibilities down to 44 people, 55 weapons, and 77 rooms, to determine what is the probability of making a random guess of the guilty person, murder weapon, and location from your narrowed-down choices , and the guess being correct, the following calculation must be performed:

(1 / (44x55x77)) x 100 = X

(1 / 186,340) x 100 = X

0.0005366 = X

Therefore, the probability of making a correct random guess is 0.00053%.
