Answer:
a ≈ 8.7 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides , that is
a² + 5² = 10²
a² + 25 = 100 ( subtract 25 from both sides )
a² = 75 ( take square root of both sides )
a = ≈ 8.7 ( to the nearest tenth )
<u>Answer: </u>
The length of the hypotenuse is 40 mm.
<u>Step-by-step explanation: </u>
<em>We can solve for 'a' using Pythagoras theorem. Let's solve it.</em>
10² = 5² + a²
=> 100 = 25 + a²
=> a² = 75
=> a = 8.660 => a = 8.7 Hence, the length of the hypotenuse is 8.7 m.
Hoped this helped.

Since I can't draw a model the answer is equal because if you reduce 6/8 the answer is 3/4
<span>Well 68/80 as a percent is 85 % .I got that by dividing 68 by 80 and them multiplying by 100. 100-85= 15. So therefore the dress decreased in price by 15%. </span>
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+3y=-24
eq. of any line perpendicular to given line is
3x-4y=a
4y=3x-a
y=3/4x -a/4
where a is an arbitrary constant.
