Answer:

  • B. 100 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are looking for the length of the hypotenuse of the 45° right triangle with side of 70.7 ft.

<u>We know the equation:</u>

  • h = s√2, is the length of the hypotenuse and side s

<u>Substitute and calculate:</u>

  • h = 70.7*√2 = 99.98 ≈ 100 ft

Correct choice is B

Question 7<br><br> Which set of side lengths can be used to form a right<br><br> triangle?
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

D.30,40,50

Step-by-step explanation:

A.4,5,6

B.2,3,4

C.10,20,30

D.30,40,50

The Pythagoras theorem : a² + b² = c²

where a = length

b = base

c =  hypotenuse

4² + 5² = 25 is not equal to the square of 6 which is 36

2² + 3² = 10 . 10  is not equal to the square of 4 which is 16

10² + 20³ = 500. 500  is not equal to the square of 30 which is 900

30² + 40² = 2500. this is equal to the square of 50

A fish tank with a rectangular base has a volume of 3360 cubic inches. the length of the tank is 14 inches and the width is 12 i
Alenkasestr [34]

water  the tank will hold = 14.583 gallons

<h3>What is cuboid ?</h3>
  • A cuboid is a three-dimensional or solid shape.
  • A cuboid is a convex polyhedron that has six rectangular faces, eight vertices, and twelve edges.
  • Another name for a cuboid is a rectangular prism. A cube is a cuboid with six square faces.
  • The basic formula for the area of a rectangular shape is length × width, the basic formula for volume is length × width × height.

Given : A fish tank  has a volume = 3360 cubic Inches.

        The length of the tank is =14 inches

                             the width is  = 12 inches.

         The height of the tank is = 20 inches.

           If one fluid ounce is = 1.8 cubic inches

Volume of tank = 14 * 12 * 20  =  3360 cubic inches

1.8 cubic inches   =  one fluid ounce

3360 cubic inches   =  3360/1.8   fluid ounce

= 5600/3    fluid ounce

As we know,

                  1 gallons  = 128   fluid ounces

water  the tank will hold    =(  5600/3 ) / 128

                                           = 175 / 1 = 14.583 gallons

Therefore, water  the tank will hold  = 14.583 gallons
