Answer:
- 125 in²
- 676 km²
- 20 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean theorem tells you the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides. (This is the version you use for problem 2.)
This also means the square on one side is the difference between the square on the hypotenuse and the square on the other side. (Use this version for problems 1 and 3.)
1. ? = 200 in² -75 in² = 125 in²
2. ? = 576 km² + 100 km² = 676 km²
3. ? = 36 square units - 16 square units = 20 square units
Answer:
105.
Step-by-step explanation:
21+21+21+21+21=105.
Answer:
15 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The question talks about;
- A rectangular flower bed whose dimensions are 12 ft by 9 ft
We are required to determine the length of the diagonal
To answer the question, we need to know the following;
- All the angles in a rectangle are right angles
- A diagonal divides a rectangle into two right-angled triangles
- The dimensions of the rectangle acts as the legs of right angled triangle.
Therefore;
Using Pythagoras theorem;
a² + b² = c²
Where, c is the hypotenuse (in this case the diagonal)
a and b are the shorter sides of the right-angled triangle
Therefore;
c² = 12² + 9²
c² = 144 + 81
= 225
c = √225
= 15
Therefore, the length of the diagonal is 15 feet
