Three right triangles are drawn in the coordinate plane,

Mathematics

Answer:

Triangle A:

- smaller leg = 3

- longer leg = 10

- hypotenuse = 10.4

Traingle B:

- smaller leg = 4

- longer leg = 13

- hypotenuse = 13.6

Triangle C:

- smaller leg = 5

- longer leg = 7

- hypotenuse = 8.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the distance of the legs for the 3 right triangles.

<u>Triangle A</u>

The smaller leg (SL) is from (2,5) to (2,8), so the length is given by the distance in the y-axis:

SL_{A} = 8 - 5 = 3

Hence, the lenght of the smaller leg is 3.

The longer leg (LL) is from (-8, 8) to (2, 8), so the length is given by the distance in the x-axis:

LL_{A} = 2 - (-8) = 10

Then, the length of the longer leg is 10.  

Now, we can find the hypotenuse (H) by using Pitagoras:

H_{A} = \sqrt{SL_{A}^{2} + LL_{A}^{2}} = \sqrt{3^{2} + 10^{2}} = 10.4

<u>Triangle B</u>

The SL is from (3, -9) to (7, -9)

The length of the SL is:

SL_{B} = 7 - 3 = 4

The LL is from (7, -9) to (7, 4)

The length of the LL is:

LL_{B} = 4 - (-9) = 13

The hypotenuse is:

H_{B} = \sqrt{4^{2} + 13^{2}} = 13.6

<u>Triangle C</u>

The SL is from (-10, -6) to (-10, -1)

The length of the SL is:

SL_{C} = -1 - (-6) = 5

The LL is from (-10, -6) to (-3, -6)  

The length of the LL is:

LL_{C} = -3 - (-10) = 7

The hypotenuse is:

H_{C} = \sqrt{5^{2} + 7^{2}} = 8.6

I hope it helps you!

a six sided number cube has faces with the numbers 1 through 6 marked on them. what is the probability that a number less than 2
iris [78.8K]

Solution:

we are given that

A six sided number cube has faces with the numbers 1 through 6 marked on them.

we have been asked to find the probability that a number less than 2 will occur on one toss of the number cube.

Since a number less than 2 is only one and that is "1" and total number of possible outcome is 6.

and as we know that probability is given using the formula

P(E)= \frac{n(E)}{n(S)}\\ \\

Substitute the values we get

P(E)= \frac{1}{6}

Hence the required probability is 1/6.

Help me please <br> Surds
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

12\sqrt{6} + 8\sqrt{15} + 12 + 4\sqrt{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rule of radicals

\sqrt{a} × \sqrt{b} ⇔ \sqrt{ab}

Given

(4\sqrt{3} + 2\sqrt{2} )(3\sqrt{2} + 2\sqrt{5} )

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

4\sqrt{3} (3\sqrt{2} + 2\sqrt{5} ) + 2\sqrt{2} (3\sqrt{2} + 2\sqrt{5} ) ← distribute both parenthesis

= 12\sqrt{6} + 8\sqrt{15} + 12 + 4\sqrt{10}
