Length of the base = 8
Length of the hypotenuse = 17
The length of the third side ''".
Using Pythagoras theorem, we have
(Perpendicular)² + (Base)² = (Hypotenuse)²
+ (8)² = (17)²
+ 64 = 289
= 289 - 64
= 225
=
=
Therefore, the length of the missing side is
.
(15)² + (8)² = (17)²
225 + 64 = 289
289 = 289
L.H.S. = R. H. S.
Hence verified.
Answer:
Number of points scored in the first half of the match is 24 points.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total point scored in the volleyball game = 32
Let us assume the points scored in the first half = m
and the point scored on the second half = 2/8 of (Total points)
=
⇒ The number of points s cored in the second - half = 8 points
Now, Points in FIRST half+ Points in SECOND half= Total Points
⇒ m+ 8 = 32
or, m = 32 - 8 = 24
⇒ m = 24
Hence, the number of points scored in the first half is 24 points.
