If the length of the legs of a right triangle are 5 meters and 7 meters, what is the length of the hypotenuse to the nearest ten

th of a meter?
Mathematics

TEA [102]2 years ago

Answer:

8.6 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

a² + b² = c²    means        leg² + leg² = hypotenuse ²

5² + 7² = hypotenuse²

25 + 49 = hypotenuse²

74 = hypotenuse ²

\sqrt{74} = hypotenuse

8.6 = hypotenuse

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

For right angle triangle,

we use Pythagoras theorem that is:

c^{2} =a^{2} +b^{2}

c = \sqrt{a^{2} +b^{2} }

For question 1:

c = ?

a = 40

b = 9

putting them in formula,

c = \sqrt{40^{2} + 9^{2} }

c = 41

For question 2:

c = ?

a = 12

b = 13

putting them in formula,

c = \sqrt{12^{2} + 13^{2} }

c = approximately 17.69181

For question 3:

c = 35

a = 20

b = ?

putting them in formula,

c^{2} =a^{2} +b^{2}

35^{2} = 20^{2} + b^{2}

1225 = 400 + b^{2}

b^{2} = 1225 - 400

b^{2} = 825

\sqrt{b^{2} } = \sqrt{825}

b = 5 \sqrt{33}

For question 4:

c = 37

a = 20

b = ?

putting them in formula,

c^{2} =a^{2} +b^{2}

37^{2} = 20^{2} + b^{2}

1369 = 400 + b^{2}

b^{2} = 1369 - 400

b^{2} = 969

Taking square root on both sides

b = 31.12

Hope it helps.

Prove the following statements: (a) For every integer x, if x is even, then for every integer y, xy is even. (b) For every integ
Murrr4er [49]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Given that x and y is even, we want to prove that xy is also even.

For x and y to be even, x and y have to be a multiple of 2. Let x = 2k and y = 2p where k and p are real numbers. xy = 2k x 2p = 4kp = 2(2kp). The product is a multiple of 2, this means the number is also even. Hence xy is even when x and y are even.

(b) in reality, if an odd number multiplies and odd number, the result is also an odd number. Therefore, the question is wrong. I assume they wanted to ask for the proof that the product is also odd. If that's the case, then this is the proof:

Given that x and y are odd, we want to prove that xy is odd. For x and y to be odd, they have to be multiples of 2 with 1 added to it. Therefore, suppose x = 2k + 1 and y = 2p + 1 then xy = (2k + 1)(2p + 1) = 4kp + 2k + 2p + 1 = 2(kp + k + p) + 1. Let kp + k + p = q, then we have 2q + 1 which is also odd.

(c) Given that x is odd we want to prove that 3x is also odd. Firstly, we've proven above that xy is odd if x and y are odd. 3 is an odd number and we are told that x is odd. Therefore it follows from the second proof that 3x is also odd.
