Multiply by 3/5 (three fifths)
Answer:
H and b
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
5.4 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean theorem tells you the relationship between the various lengths is ...
cd² = ac² +ad²
cd² = (2.4 m)² + (1.8 m)² = 9.00 m²
cd = √(9.00 m²) = 3.0 m
Since cd = cb and ab = ac+cb, we have ...
ab = 2.4 m + 3.0 m = 5.4 m
_____
You may recognize this as a 3-4-5 right triangle with a scale factor of 0.6. We are asked for the sum of the lengths of the "4" and "5" legs, which is ...
0.6·(4+5) = 5.4
Short Answer: 1.5
Givens
OA = 12
OB = 9
O does not lie on AB
Argument
The order that these lines must be in is OBA. O is on your left, B is in the middle and A is on your right.
Mark your distances as follows.
OB = 9
BA = 3
Mark the midpoint of OA = M1
Mark the midpoint of OB = M2
M1 = 12 / 2 = 6 so M1 is 6 units from O
M2 = 9/2 = 4.5
The distance between the two midpoints is 6 - 4.5 = 1.5
Answer M1 - M2 = 1.5 <<<<
