SOLUTION:
PQR is a right-angle triangle.
Therefore, to solve this problem, we will use Pythagoras theorem which is only applicable to right-angle triangles.
Pythagoras theorem is as displayed below:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Where c = hypotenuse of right-angle triangle
Where a and b = other two sides of right-angle triangle
Now we will simply substitute the values from the problem into Pythagoras theorem in order to obtain the length of QR.
c = PQ = 16cm
a = PR = 8cm
b = QR = ?
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
( 8 )^2 + b^2 = ( 16 )^2
64 + b^2 = 256
b^2 = 256 - 64
b^2 = 192
b = square root of ( 192 )
b = 13.8564...
b = 13.86 ( to 2 decimal places )
FINAL ANSWER:
Therefore, the length of QR is 13.86 centimetres to 2 decimal places.
Hope this helps! :)

Answer:
5,580
Step-by-step explanation:
Rectangle: 36x30x60=6480
Triangle: 1/2x15x20x6=900
6480-900=5,580
The general equation is that for every red tile, there must be 12 blue ones.
Algebraically this is expressed as b = 12r where r is red and b is blue. Your teacher might like you to express it as y = 12x where y is blue and x is red. The meaning is the same.
For beginners it might be easier to say b = 12r. So if you have 15 reds then r = 15
b = 12 * r
b = 12 * 15
b = 180 blue tiles.
the answer to 3806 divided 22 is 173
Answer:
B. the triangle in question is not a right triangle
Step-by-step explanation:
A 3-4-5 triangle is a right triangle, so this one, with its longer longest side, is an obtuse triangle. It is not a right triangle.
___
3, 4, 5 is one of the first Pythagorean triples that you learn:
3² + 4² = 5²
These are the side lengths of the smallest right triangle with integer sides. It is worthwhile to remember. This triple is used not only in many math problems (such as this one), but also in real life when it is useful to lay out a right angle.
