Answer:
2 1/2 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean theorem is not useful in this problem.
__
If you reflect the triangle over the vertical line, you find that line to be the altitude of an equilateral triangle. That is, all of the vertex angles are 60°.
The base of that equilateral triangle is necessarily twice the length of the base of the triangle shown. All sides of the equilateral triangle are the same length, so all are 5 ft. The base of the triangle shown is half that.
The base (short leg) of the triangle shown is 2 1/2 feet.
_____
Since angles are given, this can be solved using trigonometry. The short leg will be (5 ft)·cos(60°) = (5 ft)(0.5) = 2.5 ft. (The cosine of 60° is one of the few exact rational values of trig functions of exact angles measured in degrees.)
Hello,
Your correct answer would be: 150, b/c .30 times 150 equal's 45.
Hope this helps 150 is your answer!

Nine subtracted from negative seven would be sixteen.
Answer: negative -3.25
Step-by-step explanation: Add the negatives which is -5.25 then the positives which is positive 2.00
Then you need to add 2 to the negative number and you’ll get -3.25
