The Measure of the Missing Angles can be found by this formula: x+y+z= 180°.
You already know the measure of 1 Angle, which is 30°, right?
You also know that this Triangle is a Right Triangle, so the Square for One Angle indicates that the Angle is 90°.
y= 90°, and z= 30°, and you know that the Total Measure of any Triangle is 180° Total.
90°+30° = 120°, and 180°-120°= 60°, so finally, x= 60°, and y=90°, and z= 30°.
The answer is 2.8. or around there
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
My approach was to draw out the probabilities, since we have 3 children, and we are looking for 2 boys and 1 girl, the probabilities can be Boy-Boy-Girl, Boy-Girl-Boy, and Girl-Boy-Boy. So a 2/3 chance if you think about it, your answer 2/3 can't be correct. If we assume that boys and girls are born with equal probability, then the probability to have two girls (and one boy) should be the same as the probability to have two boys and one girl. So you would have two cases with probability 2/3, giving an impossible 4/3 probability for both cases. Also, your list "Boy-Boy-Girl, Boy-Girl-Boy, and Girl-Boy-Boy" seems strange. All of those are 2 boys and 1 girl, so based on that list, you should get a 100 percent chance. But what about Boy-Girl-Girl, or Girl-Girl-Girl? You get 2/3 if you assume that adjacencies in the (ordered) list are important, i.e., "2 boys and a girl" means that the girl was not born between the boys.
