Answer:

5^2+h^2=12^2, the answer would be ~10.97 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

I would use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this problem. Put in the things that you know, so in this image we are given one of the legs and the hypotenuse of the triangle.

Pythagorean theorem is :

a^2+b^2=c^2 with a and b being the legs and c being the hypotenuse.

Once you plug in the hypotenuse and one of the legs, solve for the other leg by subtracting a^2 (5^2) from 12^2 (c^2), which will give you 119, and then take the square root of 119 and you will get your answer.

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Aakash body temperature during the day = 99.2°F.

If by evening his body temperature increases by 3.4°F, then his body temperature in the evening will be expresses as the sum of his temperature in the day and the increment.

Temperature in the evening = 99.2°F+3.4°F.

Temperature in the evening = 102.6°F.

Hence his body temperature in the evening is 102.6°F.

The probability that a can of paint contains contamination is 3.23%, and the probability of a mixing error is 2.4%. The probabil

stich3 [128]

Answer:

4.6%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that a can of paint contains contamination(C) is 3.23%

P(C)=3.23%

The probability of a mixing(M) error is 2.4%.

P(M)=2.4%

The probability of both is 1.03%.

$P(C \cap M)=1.03\%$

We want to determine the probability that a randomly selected can has contamination or a mixing error. i.e. $P(C \cup M)$

In probability theory:

$P(C \cup M) = P(C)+P(M)-P(C \cap M)\\P(C \cup M)=3.23+2.4-1.03\\P(C \cup M)=4.6\%$

The probability that a randomly selected can has contamination or a mixing error is 4.6%.

The measure of one angle is 7 times the measure of its complement.Find each angle measure

aleksklad [387]

let the angles be x and y.
as they are compliment
x+y=90
also given
x=7y

substituting value of x in first equation
7y+y=90
8y=90
therefore
y=11.25
x=7*y=78.75
