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.

What is the exterior angle?

olganol [36]

Answer:

angle YUT = 120

Step-by-step explanation:

in Triangle SUT

angle 70 + angle 50 + angle x = 180

70 + 50 + x = 180

120 + x = 180

x = 180 - 120

x = 60

angle SUT = 60

angle SUT + angle YUT = 180 ( straight line)

60 + x = 180

x = 120

Therefore angle YUT ( exterior angle ) = 120

Frank purchased a boat for $7,525. He made a down payment of $475. He applied for a six-year installment loan with an interest r

zhenek [66]

Answer:

$10,603.20

Step-by-step explanation:

You can calculate the simple interest of the loan using the formula:

I = prt, where I = interest, p = principal amount, r = interest rate and t = time. Plugging in the values from the problem:

p = $7,050

r = 8.4% or 0.084

t = 6 years

I = (7050)(0.84)(6) = $3,553.20

To find the total cost of the boat, add the interest and the purchase price:

$7,525 + $3,553.20 = $11,078.20
