When creating a right triangle using 3 squares as seen in the online video, which sides create the right angle in the triangle?

1 answer:

5 0

When creating a right triangle using three squares, the sides of the two squares with the smallest areas will create the right angle in the triangle (see image attached below).

<h3>Creating a Right Triangle with Three Squares</h3>

The right angle of a right triangle is formed by the two small legs of the right triangle that are perpendicular to each other.

Just like in the diagram attached below, the two squares with the smallest sides will form the right angle in the right triangle.

Therefore, we can conclude that when creating a right triangle using three squares, the sides of the two squares with the smallest areas will create the right angle in the triangle.

Who can help me ! .... thanks

Given that there is no any option to choose I am going to help you according to the concepts of Congruent Triangles. Two triangles are congruent if and only if:

1. They have:exactly the same three sides
2. exactly the same three angles.

There are five ways to find if two triangles are congruent but in this problem we will use only two.

First Answer:

ASA criterion: Angle, side, angle. This means that we have two triangles where we know two angles and the included side are equal.

So:

If ∠BAC = ∠DEF and $\overline{AC}=\overline{DE}$

Then ΔABC and ΔEFD are congruent by ASA criterion.

Second answer:

SAS criterion: Side, angle, side. This means that we have two triangles where we know two sides and the included angle are equal.

$If \ \overline{AC}=\overline{DE} \ and \ \overline{BC}=\overline{DF}$

Then ΔABC and ΔEFD are congruent by SAS criterion.

(9, 19) (2, 16) Write the coordinates as decimals or integers.

9966 [12]

Answer:

In decimal 0.428571428

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) y2 = 16, y1 = 19x2=2 and x1=9

The slope = (16 - 19)/(2 -9)

The slope = (-3)/(-7)

The slope = 0.428571428

So in decimal form the coordinates are going to be written as 0.428571428

Slope is the steepness of a line, it is the difference between the y coordinates divided by the difference in x coordinates.

PLEASE HELP! A positive number is 1/3 of another number. The sum of the numbers is five less than the square of the larger numbe

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: The numbers are 1 and 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = smaller number , y= larger number.

As per given,

$x=\dfrac{y}{3}$ ...(i)

$x+y=y^2-5$ ...(ii)

Put value of x from (i) in (ii)

$\dfrac{y}{3}+y=y^2-5\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac43y=y^2-5\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3y^2-4y-15=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3y^2-9y+5y-15=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3y(y-3)+5(y-3)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ (y-3)(3y+5)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=3 \ \ or\ y=\dfrac{-5}{3}$

Since numbers are positive , so y=3 is correct.

And x will be 1 [from (i)]

Hence, the numbers are 1 and 3.
