A ladder is 6 m long.

Mathematics
1 answer:
IRISSAK [1]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

5.8 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Pythagorean Theorem (a² + b² = c²) you get the equation a² + 1.5² = 6² (or 1.5² + b² = 6²). Then you solve from there and rounding to the first decimal place you get 5.8

What is the area of a triangle whose side is 17 meters long​
Lunna [17]

Answer:

125.141

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that this is an equilateral triangle, I am going to divide this triangle in half to get a right triangle.

17 is our hypotenuse

17/2 = 8.5, this is one of our legs

The other leg is our height, which we will find.

We use Pythagoras Theorem to find the height/leg: a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}

17^{2} -8.5^{2} = 216.75

\sqrt{216.75} = 14.72243186

Now, we use another formula to find the area of the triangle: \frac{Base*Height}{2}

14.72243186 × 17 = 250.2813416

250.2813416 ÷ 2 = <u>125.1406708</u>

Write the equation of the line passing through the point ​(​6,-9​) with slope -5/6.
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

The equation is y = -5/6 x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope intercept form is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -5/6 x+b

Substitute in the point

-9 = -5/6(6) +b

-9 = -5+b

Add  5 to each side

-4 = b

The equation is y = -5/6 x-4
