The sides of a 30 60 90 triangle are 9 and 18.What is the third length of the triangle

Nimfa-mama [501]2 years ago

Answer:  15.59 or 9√3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the third side.

c² = a² + b²   In a 30 60 90 Triangle, the hypotenuse is twice the length of the short leg of the right angle.

c is the hypotenuse. a is the short leg

18² = 9² + b²

324 = 81 + b²  Subtract 81 from both sides.

324 - 81 = b²  becomes b² = 243   Take the square root of both sides

b = 15.5884 . This can  be rounded to 15.59 or 15.6 depending on significant digits or amount of precision required.

The proportions of the sides of the 30 60 90 triangle can also be used:

2² = 1² + b²

4 = 1 + b²

3 = b²

√3 = b

You can always multiply the length of the short leg by √3 to get the length of the side opposite the 60° angle

Find the
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

54 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of an equilateral triangle is

A = \frac{s^2\sqrt{3} }{4}  ( s is the side length ) then

\frac{s^2\sqrt{3} }{4} = 81\sqrt{3} ( multiply both sides by 4 to clear the fraction )

s²\sqrt{3} = 324\sqrt{3} ( divide both sides by \sqrt{3} )

s² = 324 ( take the square root of both sides )

s = \sqrt{324} = 18

Thus

perimeter = 3 × 18 = 54 cm

Nadia is ordering cheesecake at a restaurant, and the server tells her that she can have up to five toppings: caramel, whipped c
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

The probability that Nadia gets just caramel, butterscotch sauce, strawberries, and hot fudge is P =  1/32 = 0.03125

Step-by-step explanation:

There are up to 5 toppings, such that the toppings are:

caramel

whipped cream

butterscotch sauce

strawberries

hot fudge

We want to find the probability that,  If the server randomly chooses which toppings to add, she gets just caramel, butterscotch sauce, strawberries, and hot fudge.

First, we need to find the total number of possible combinations.

let's separate them in number of toppings.

0 toppins:

Here is one combination.

1 topping:

here we have one topping and 5 options, so there are 5 different combinations of 1 topping.

2 toppings.

Assuming that each topping can be used only once, for the first topping we have 5 options.

And for the second topping we have 4 options (because one is already used)

The total number of combinations is equal to the product between the number of options for each topping, so here we have:

c = 4*5 = 20 combinations.

But we are counting the permutations, which is equal to n! (where n is the number of toppings, in this case is n = 2), this means that we are differentiating in the case where the first topping is caramel and the second is whipped cream, and the case where the first topping is whipped cream and the second is caramel, to avoid this, we should divide by the number of permutations.

Then the number of different combinations is:

c' = 20/2! = 10

3 toppings.

similarly to the previous case.

for the first topping there are 5 options

for the second there are 4 options

for the third there are 3 options

the total number of different combinations is:

c' = (5*4*3)/(3!) = (5*4*3)/(3*2) = 10

4 toppings:

We can think of this as "the topping that we do not use", so there are only 5 possible toppings to not use, then there are 5 different combinations with 4 toppings.

5 toppings:

Similar to the first case, here is only one combination with 5 toppings.

So the total number of different combinations is:

C = 1 + 5 + 10 + 10 + 5 + 1 = 32

There are 32 different combinations.

And we want to find the probability of getting one particular combination (all of them have the same probability)

Then the probability is the quotient between one and the total number of different combinations.

p = 1/32

The probability that Nadia gets just caramel, butterscotch sauce, strawberries, and hot fudge is P =  1/32 = 0.03125

Arsenic is toxic to humans. The greatest amount of arsenic that is allowed in drinking water is 10 parts per billion. A test sho
Anna35 [415]
The decimal you put would be “two ten-millionths” if read out loud. If the allowable amount is 10 parts per billion, it would be 1 part per 100 million. Because 2 parts per 10 million is also 20 parts per 100 million, it is not not an acceptable amount
