We need Pythagoras theorem here
a^2+b^2 = c^2
a, b = legs of a right-triangle
c = length of hypotenuse
Let S=shorter leg, in cm, then longer leg=S+2 cm
use Pythagoras theorem
S^2+(S+2)^2 = (10 cm)^2
expand (S+2)^2
S^2 + S^2+4S+4 = 100 cm^2 [collect terms and isolate]
2S^2+4S = 100-4 = 96 cm^2
simplify and form standard form of quadratic
S^2+2S-48=0
Solve by factoring
(S+8)(S-6) = 0 means (S+8)=0, S=-8
or (S-6)=0, S=6
Reject nengative root, so
Shorter leg = 6 cm
Longer leg = 6+2 cm = 8 cm
Hypotenuse (given) = 10 cm
Answer:
68.27%
Step-by-step explanation:
By the Empirical Rule, as 65% and 75% are both one standard deviation apart from the mean of 70%, then this represents 68.27% of the data.
Answer: If perpendicular lines intersect, then they form right angles.
Step-by-step explanation:
You take the first part, "perpendicular lines intersect", and add the "if" to it. Then, you take the second part, "to form right angles", and add the "then" in front of it to get your answer, "If perpendicular lines intersect, then they form right angles."
Hope it helps! :)
If you take the numerator and the denominator from flour and multiply both by 10, you'll get 40/100. then, add 40/100 to 12/100. your answer should be 52/100. if not, look back through your math. hope that helped.
