Answer:

16, see below :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

We can use the pythagorean theorem because one of the angles is 90 degrees. According to the theorem, a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a is 12, b is unknown, and c is 20

Now we use the theorem

12^2 + b^2 = 20^2

144 + b^2 = 400

b^2 = 256

b = sqrt(256)

b = 16

  • BC = 12 cm
<h3>______________________</h3>

\sf{\bold{\green{\underline{\underline{To\:Find}}}}}

AB = w = ??

<h3>______________________</h3>

\sf{\bold{\green{\underline{\underline{Solution}}}}}

⠀⠀⠀⠀

Using Pythagoras theorem ;

⠀⠀⠀⠀

\sf{\red{\boxed{\bold{( hypotenuse )^2 = ( base )^2 + ( height )^2 }}}}

⠀⠀⠀⠀

First , lets understand the concept ;

⠀⠀⠀⠀

What is Pythagoras theorem ??

⠀⠀⠀⠀

In Pythagoras theorem the square of hypotenuse is equal to the square of base in the square of corresponding height when one angle is 90° .

⠀⠀⠀⠀

What is hypotenuse ?

⠀⠀⠀⠀

The side in the front of right angle is known as hypotenuse .

⠀⠀⠀⠀

In the given Δ ;

⠀⠀⠀⠀

Hypotenuse = AC = 20 cm

⠀⠀

Acc. to the formulae ;

⠀⠀⠀⠀

➠ 20² = 12² + w²

⠀⠀⠀⠀

➠ w² = 20 ² - 12 ²

⠀

➠ w² = 400 - 144

⠀⠀⠀⠀

➠ w² = 256

⠀

➠ d = √256

⠀⠀⠀⠀

➠d = 16cm

⠀⠀⠀⠀

Why can 0.825 be written as a fraction explain
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

It can be written as 825/1000. You can simplify this to get the simplest form which would be 33/40. All decimals are out of one, they are a part. When you first get a decimal, put the numbers such as 825 on top. The last number is in the thousandths place, so it is out of 1000. 1000 is your denominator. Your fraction is then 825/1000. From here you can simplify if possible.

Hope this helps ^-^
