To know what kind of triangle is it. use the pythagorean theorem:
A^2 + B^2 = C^2,
where C is the longest side of the triangle
if it satisfies the equation then it is a right triangle
if it does not then A^2 + B^2 > C^2 so it is acute triangle
if A^2 + B^2 < C^2 it is obtuse triangle
18^2 + 13^2 ? 27^2
324 + 169 ? 729
493 < 729 so it is obtuse triangle
Answer:
2 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
distance=rate*time
d=rt
1/6=r*(1/12)
multiply both sides by 12
12(1/6)=r*(1/12)12
2=r*1
2=r
rate=2 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
y is easy.
it is the Hypotenuse (baseline) of the small right-angled triangle created by the height (8) of the main triangle, the segment 6 of the main Hypotenuse and y.
so, Pythagoras :
y² = 8² + 6² = 64 + 36 = 100
y = 10
x is a bit more complex.
I think the easiest way to get it is to know that the height of a right-angled triangle to the Hypotenuse is the square root of the product of both segments of the Hypotenuse.
so, if we call the segments of the Hypotenuse a and b with a = 6, we have
x = a + b = 6 + b
height (8) = sqrt(a×b) = sqrt(6b)
therefore,
6b = height² = 8² = 64
b = 64/6 = 32/3 = 10 2/3 = 10.66666666...
so,
x = 6 + 10.66666... = 16.666666666...
round it to what is needed. e.g. 2 positions after the decimal point (hundredths) ? then it would be 10.67
step (1) 32+23*4 =124 step (2) 9+23*4= 101 step (3) 9+9*4=45 step 4 9+35=44
