How far up the house would a ladder be resting if it is 25 ft long and 3 ft

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lena [83]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The last one is absurd. You can't have a ladder reaching higher than itself. The question is a Pythagorean problem.

Givens

a = 3

b = ?

c = 25 feet

Formula

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Solution

3^2 + b^2 = 25^2

9 + b^2 = 625                  Subtract 9 from both sides.

b^2 = 625 - 9

b^2 = 616                        Take the square root of both sides.

b = sqrt(616)

b = 24.8

HELP ME ASAP for 37 points!! which expression is equivalent to 14.5d+8.5-1/2d+1/2+2.5d
lina2011 [118]

Equivalent expressions are expressions with equal values

The equivalent expression is 16.5d+9

<h3>How to determine the equivalent expression</h3>

The expression is given as:

14.5d+8.5-1/2d+1/2+2.5d

Express the fractions as decimals

14.5d+8.5-0.5d+0.5+2.5d

Collect like terms

14.5d-0.5d+2.5d+8.5+0.5

Evaluate the like terms

16.5d+9

Hence, the equivalent expression is 16.5d+9

Please Identify the congruent triangles in the figure.
Tpy6a [65]

The missing steps are each right angles and \angle R \cong \angle O.

Solution:

Step 1: Given data:

\overline {P Q} \cong \overline{M N}

\overline{Q R} \cong \overline{N O}

\overline{P R} \cong \overline{M O}

Step 2: In the two polygons,

\angle Q =90^\circ and \angle N =90^\circ

\angle Q \cong \angle N (Each right angle)

Step 3: Given

\angle P \cong \angle M

Step 4: By third angle theorem,

If two angles in one triangle are congruent to the two angles in the other triangle, then the third angles in the triangles also congruent.

\angle R \cong \angle O

Step 5: By the definition of congruent polygons,

If two same shape polygons have all the angles are congruent and all the corresponding sides are congruent then the polygons are congruent.

Hence \Delta P Q R \cong \Delta M N O.

Therefore the missing steps are each right angles and \angle R \cong \angle O.
