Answer: 80 meters</h3>
This is an isosceles triangle. The dashed line is the height which is perpendicular to the base 120. The height is always perpendicular to the base. The dashed line cuts the base into two equal pieces (this only works for isosceles triangles when you cut at the vertex like this).
So we have two smaller triangles each with a base of 60 and a height of x. Focus on one of the right triangles and use the pythagorean theorem to solve for x.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
x^2 + (60)^2 = (100)^2
x^2 + 3600 = 10000
x^2 = 10000 - 3600
x^2 = 6400
x = sqrt(6400)
x = 80
Each smaller right triangle has side lengths of 60, 80, 100
Note the ratio 60:80:100 reduces to 3:4:5. A 3-4-5 right triangle is a very common pythagorean primitive.
Answer:m=d/V
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for m, you must divide V from each side. Leaving you with m=d/V. Hope this helped:)
Answer:
Distance in meters D = 167.75 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance covered in 5 seconds is given by:
Distance, D = Speed (S) X Time (T)
Where,
Distance = ?
Speed = 75mph
Time = 5s
Since we are calculating distance in meters, we have to convert 75miles per hour to meters per second
75mph = 75miles/1hr X 1km/0.621miles X 1000m/1km X 1hr/60mins X 1min/60s
= (75X1000) / (0.621X60X60) meter per second
= 75000/2235.6 meter per second
= 33.55 meter per second
∴ Distance D = 33.55 meter per second X 5 seconds
= 167.75 meters
Your answer is option c. The final simplified form should have y to the 4th power instead of y cubed. I think so..
