Well,
For example
2.34 * 10^6 will be....
2,340,000
It is because if you have the positive powers, you move your decimal to the right. In this case the power is 6 so you move your decimal to the right 6 times.
Here's another example
1.23 X 10^-2
The answer will be 0.0123 because you move your decimal two the left two times. The power is negative 2 so you move it to the left.
Final tips: If you have positive power, move it to the right and if you have negative power, move it to the left.
Answer:
The length of LM,hypotenuse is 55.866ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that LN=39ft and MN=40ft so you can solve it using Pythogoras' Theorem:
side²+side² = hypo²
LN² + MN² = LM²
hypo² = 39²+40²
= 3121
LM = √3121
= 55.866ft (3d.p)
