Answer:

51 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Steve is turning half his backyard into a chicken fan. His backyard is a 24 m x 45 m rectangle. He wants to put a chicken wire fence that stretches diagonally from one corner to the opposite corner. How many meters of fencing will Steve need?

We are to find the meters of fencing for the diagonal.

We solve the question using Pythagoras Theorem

= c² = a² + b²

Where

c = Diagonal

a = Width

b =Length

Diagonal² = Width² + Length ²

Hence:

Diagonal ² = 45² + 24²

Diagonal = √45² + 24²

Diagonal = √(2601)

Diagonal = 51 m

Therefore, the meters of fencing for the diagonal that Steve would be needing = 51 meters

A, B & C form the vertices of a triangle.
Savatey [412]

Answer:

BC = 17.2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since CAB = 90º, this is a right triangle.

The triangle format is given below:

C

A           B

We have that AB = 8.6, and angle B measures 60º.

Length of BC:

BC is the hypotenyse.

Side AB is adjacent to angle B = 60º.

In a right triangle, angle \alpha, it's adjacent side with length s and the hypotenuse h are related by the cosine of the angle, that is:

\cos{\alpha} = \frac{s}{h}

In this question, we have an angle of 60º, with has cosine 0.5. We also have that side AB = s = 8.6, and the hypotenuse h is side BC. So

\cos{\alpha} = \frac{s}{h}

0.5 = \frac{8.6}{h}

0.5h = 8.6

h = \frac{8.6}{0.5}

h = 17.2

BC = 17.2.

The sum of two numbers is 12. The difference of the two numbers is 22. Find the two numbers
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

-5 and 17

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of two numbers (let's just say number a and number b) is 12.

a + b = 12

The difference between the same two numbers (still a and b) is 22.

b - a = 22

(Move variable a to the right side to get the following.)

b = 22 + a

(This way, we can substitute b = 22 + a into the first equation, a + b = 12, and solve.)

a + (22 + a) = 12

a + a + 22 = 12

2a = -10

a = -5

a + b = 12

-5 + b = 12

b = 17

Which set of ordered pairs does not represent a function
Alex Ar [27]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

The Second one {(-8,-7), (4,-2), (2,9), (-8,8)}

<h3 /><h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

A function only gives ONE out put for a given value. But the second set has two outputs if we input -8, it gives you -7 and 8 so this must not be a function.
