Answer:

3.975 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

We find the length of the triangle

We solve using Pythagoras Theorem

Diagonal² = Length² + Width²

Diagonal = 4 inches

Width = 3 inches

Length² = Diagonal² - Width²

Length = √Diagonal² - Width²

Length = √4² - 3²

Length = √16 - 9

Length = √(7)

Length = 2.6457513111 inches

Length = 2.65 inches

Step 2

Area of Triangle = 1/2 × Base × Height

Base = Length = 2.65 inches

Height = Width = 3 inches

=1/2 × 2.65 inches × 3 inches

= 3.975 square inches

Therefore, the area of one of the triangles that are formed is 3.975 square inches

Law Incorporation [45]
So, You Need To Find The Length Of One Of The Sides. So, Lets Find It Using The Cubed Method. 10*10*10 = 1000, So It Can't Be 10. 5*5*5 = 125, So It Needs To Be Bigger. 7*7*7 = 343, So Bigger. 8*8*8 = 512, So Bigger. 9*9*9 = 729m^3, So, The Side Length Of The Cube Is 9 Meters. I Hope This Helps!

Determine if the expression 9x^-2 is a polynomial or not. If it is a polynomial, state
Andrej [43]

Answer:

9x⁻²  is not a polynomial

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial function is a function that involves non-negative integer powers of x such as a quadratic, cubic etc.

A polynomial is a function written in the form of ;

f{x} =aₙxⁿ+aₙ₋₁xⁿ⁻¹+-------+a₂x²+a₁x+a₀

The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of x in the expression

9x⁻² ----in this case, the power is negative thus this is not a polynomial.
