Answer:

Yes,

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem states that: In any right triangle, the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares whose sides are the two legs (the two sides that meet at a right angle).

6² = 36

8² = 64

36 + 64 = 100

10² = 100

100 = 100 so it is a right triangle.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to test it.

6² + 8² ≟ 10²

36+64 ≟ 100

100 = 100

It is a right triangle.

What is the equation of the graph below? A graph shows a parabola that opens up and crosses the x axis at negative two and negat

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

$y=(x+3)^{2} -1$

Step-by-step explanation:

General equation of a parabola that opens up is $y=a(x-h)^{2} +k$ , a>0

So equation becomes $y=(x-h)^{2} +k$ which implies option A and option B can never be true for this parabola.

Also this parabola's vertex lies in 3rd quadrant where coordinates of both x and y will be negative.

So, the equation of parabola will be of the form $y=(x+h)^{2} - k$

Hence, option 4 that is $y=(x+3)^{2} -1$ is correct.

What Difference between hundreds and hundredths?

nordsb [41]

hundred means 100 or 200. Like I have 100 cats.

Hundredth means you have 1/100 of something. I have a peice of pie that is 1/100 of the pie. That means there are 100 pieces of the pie but I only have one out the hundred pieces.

hundred=100

hundredth = 1/100 = 0.01

tenth= 1/10 = 0.1
