Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the 3 sides of the triangle.

let the other 2 sides be x and x - 3 , then

12 + x + x - 3 = 31

2x + 9 = 31 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

2x = 22 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 11 and x - 3 = 11 - 3 = 8

The 3 sides are 12, 11, 8

with shortest side 8

The degree measure of an acute angle in a right triangle is x. If sinx=2/3, determine if each of the following expressions is al
leonid [27]
<h2> ☞ANSWER☜ </h2>

The right triangle has one 90 degree angle and two acute (< 90 degree) angles. Since the sum of the angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees... The two sides of the triangle that are by the right angle are called the legs... and the side opposite of the right angle is called the hypotenuse.

An acute angle is an angle that measures less than 90 degrees. A triangle formed by all angles measuring less than 90˚ is also known as an acute triangle. For example, in an equilateral triangle, all three angles measure 60˚, making it an acute triangle.

Suppose you and a partner want to make a recipe for 25 friends. Adjust the amount of each ingredient below to 25 servings.
mel-nik [20]
Well, we are starting with 100 servings, and we're trying to find the amount of ingredients necessary to create 25 servings. To do this, we must first simply divide 25 by 100 to see what the ratio would be, and when we do this, we can see that

25 / 100 = \frac{25}{100} = \frac{1}{4}

Now, all we have to do is multiply all of the ingredients by the ratio to find out how much we would use for only a quarter of the amount that the original recipe calls for.

In order to multiply by a whole number by a fraction, you just need to make sure that the numerator is lined up with the whole number, and then put a 1 below the whole number to turn it into a fraction. Then, you can divide the numerators and denominators together, respectively.

1.) 100 * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{100}{1} *  \frac{1}{4} = \frac{100 * 1}{1 * 4} = \frac{100}{4} = 25

2.) 72 * \frac{1}{4} =  \frac{72}{1} *  \frac{1}{4} =\frac{72 * 1}{1*4} = \frac{72}{4} = 18

3.) 14 * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{14}{1} * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{14 *1}{1*4} = \frac{14}{4} = 3 \frac{1}{2}

4.) 6 * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{6}{1} * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{6*1}{1*4} = \frac{6}{4} = <span>1 \frac{1}{2} </span>

5.) 24 * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{24}{1} * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{24*1}{1*4} = \frac{24}{4} = 6

6.) 80 * \frac{1}{4} = <span>\frac{80}{1} * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{80*1}{1*4} = \frac{80}{4} = <span>20</span>

</span>7.) 50 * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{50}{1} * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{50*1}{1*4} = \frac{50}{4} = 12 \frac{1}{2}

And there you have the recipe ingredients necessary for 25 servings.
Hope that helped! =)
