Answer:

The Pythagorean Theorem is a squared + b squared = c squared. It is used to find out a side of a triangle if you already know the two others. C is always the H=hypotenuse, while the other two sides are a and b.

Answer:

about 9.80 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of half the segment (h) can be found from the Pythagorean theorem:

h² +5² = 7²

h² = 7² -5² = 49 -25 = 24

h = √24 = 2√6

This is half the segment length, so the whole segment length is ...

L = 2h = 2(2√6)

L = 4√6 ≈ 9.7980

The length of the segment is 4√6 ≈ 9.80 cm.

16 POINTS!!! HELP ASAP

Answer:

The answer is 358.01

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$3\times 10^{2}+5\times 10^{1}+8\times 10^{0}+1\times \frac{1}{10^{2}}$

Now, to solve first we crack the power notation then multiply and then do the addition:

$3\times 100+5\times 10+8\times 1+1\times \frac{1}{100}$

(The value of $10^{1}$ is 10 and the value of $10^{0}$ is 1.)

$=300+50+8+\frac{1}{100}$

$=300+50+8+0.01$

$=358.01$ .

Therefore, the answer is 358.01 .
