Answer:
From the information we can conclude that the triangle is a isosceles triangle.
First, we can calculate the hypotenuse by using pythagorean theorem:
√(6² + 6²) = √(36 + 36) =√64 = 8 (cm)
To calculate the area of the triangle, we first need to know the height of it.
Since this is a isosceles triangle, the altitude (which is also the height) will also be the median of that triangle.
Then we also have a 90° angle, this triangle is also a right triangle, and in right triangle, the median will equal half of the hypotenuse.
From the reasoning above, we can now calculate the height of the triangle:
8/2 = 4(cm)
The area of the triangle should be:
S = hb/2 = (4 . 6)/2 = 12 (cm²)
Answer:
The speed of the boat in still water is 18 mph.
The speed of the current is 2 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of the boat in still water.
Let y represent the speed of the current.
When the boat goes against the current, the speed is 16 mph. Assuming it traveled against the current while going upstream, its total speed would be (x - y) mph. It means that
x - y = 16 (equation 1)
Going downstream, the boat averages 20 mph. Assuming it traveled with the current, its total speed would be (x + y) mph. It means that
x + y = 20 (equation 2)
Adding both equations, it becomes
2x = 36
x = 36/2
x = 18 mph
Substituting x = 18 into equation 1, it becomes
18 - y = 16
y = 18 - 16
y = 2 mph

Answer: 10%
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference between his estimated and actual distance is 15 - 13.5 = 1.5
The percentage of error is the difference divided by the actual value.
1.5÷15 = 0.10
Converted to a percentage, it is 10%
