<h2>Answer:</h2>

the pole is 22 feet long

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Multiply the length of the flagpole's shadow by meagan's height, and then divide the resulting number by the length of  her shadow.

For example, if you are 5 feet tall, your shadow is 8 feet long, and the tree's shadow is 100 feet long, the height of the tree is (100 x 5) / 8 = 62.5 feet.

I hope its right because I kind of took a good guess. If ur not sure with my answer then i suggest u dont put it unless u are.

One of the legs of a right triangle measures 8 cm and its hypotenuse measures 14 cm.
Ugo [173]

Answer:

about 11.5 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

I know the measurement of the other leg is about 11.5 cm. I know because I used the Pythagorean theorem.

a^2+b^2=c^2.

"a" and "b" are the values of the legs of the triangle, while "c" is the measure of the hypotenuse. We know that 8cm is the measure of one of the legs, and 14 cm is a measure of the hypotenuse.

8^2+b^2=14^2 simplified: 64+b^2=196

Then, I subtracted 64 on both sides, so I would have "b" by itself.

b^2=132

Next, I found the square root of both b^2 and 132, so I would find the true value of "b."

b=11.4891252931

So, the measure of the other leg rounded to the nearest tenth is about 11.5.

The X- and y-coordinates of point P are each to be chosen at random from the set of integers 1 through 10.
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Ok, as i understand it:

for a point P = (x, y)

The values of x and y can be randomly chosen from the set {1, 2, ..., 10}

We want to find the probability that the point P lies on the second quadrant:

First, what type of points are located in the second quadrant?

We should have a value negative for x, and positive for y.

But in our set;  {1, 2, ..., 10}, we have only positive values.

So x can not be negative, this means that the point can never be on the second quadrant.

So the probability is 0.
