Answer:
AD = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagoras theorem formula: a² + b² = c² (c being the hypotenuse, the longest side of the triangle).
Using this formula, you can easily say that c²-b²=a². c=5, b=4, making the equation 5² - 4² = a ².
Expanding the formula, you'll get 25 - 16 = a².
25 - 16 = 9.
This means that 9 = a².
To find a, you need to root 9. Using a calculator, you'll know that this number is 3, meaning that AD = 3.
Do you av options, Because i need to see the folding method
In this question, the information that Katie has already read 32% of a book that has a total of 80 pages is of great importance. This information is enough to find the required answer to the question.
Total number of pages Katie has to read = 80
Percentage of pages that Cathie read = 32%
Number of pages that Katie read = (32/100) * 80
= 256/10
= 25.6 pages
Then
The number of pages that Katie have left to read = 80 - 25.6
= 54.4 pages
So Katie has 54.4 pages left to read.
