Answer:

a =17.08

b = 16.97

Step-by-step explanation:

What are the values of a and b?

Using pythagoras therem';

Hyp^2 = opp^2 + adj^2

Get the value of b;

18^2 = b^2 + 6^2

324 = b^2 + 36

b^2 = 324 - 36

b^2 = 288

b = √288

b = 16.97

Get the value of a;

b^2 + 2^2 = a^2

288 + 4 = a^2

292 = a^2

a^2  = 292

a = √292

a= 17.09

How do you calculate a score

Answer:

You divide what you got by how many questions there are. For example, if you got 18/20, you'd divide 18 by 20 with a calculator. Which would be 0.9, then you move the decimal over 2 times making it 90, so you got 90%
