Answer:

No, it is not a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are 2 legs and 1 hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is 76 because it is the largest number. And the two legs are 73 and 26. Now to find if it is a right triangle we will take 73 and multiply it by itself, which is 5,329. Now we will do the same with 26 and we get 676. Then we add 676 to 5,329 and we get 6,005. Because we are trying to find the hypotenuse, we have to find what number when squared makes 6,005. Since 76 x 76 = 5,776 it is not a right triangle.

Here is an image of the triangle:

WILL MARK BRILLIANT!!! I need help ASAP

Rashid [163]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Charging by the quarter mile is for purpose of making that particular taxi service seem cheaper than the others when they post a per mile charge. If this taxi company is charging .50 per 1/4 mile, they are charging $2 per mile. So we will base our equation on the per mile charge, not the per quarter-mile charge. If x is the number of mile driven (our uknown), and we have a flat fee of $2.50 regardless of how many miles we are driven, the cost function in terms of miles is

C(x) = 2x + 2.50

If we are driven 5 miles, then

C(5) = 2(5) + 2.50 so

C(5) = 10 + 2.50 and

C(5) = $12.50

It would cost $12.50 to be driven 5 miles

1/2 of angle D is given as 32 degrees.

The 3 inside angles need to add up to 180 degrees.

Angle B is a right angle, which is 90.

Angle C = 180 - 90 - 32 = 58 degrees.

Answer:

Cartesian product

Step-by-step explanation:

The Cartesian product of two sets, X and Y, denoted by X × Y, is the set of all ordered pairs (x, y), where x is an element of X and y is an element of Y: 8 (2.4.1) X × Y = { (x, y) ∣ x ∈ X ∧ y ∈ Y } For example, if Children = { Peter, Mark, Mary }, and Parents = { Paul, Jane, Mark, Mary }, then
