If the hypotenuse of a right triangle is 145 units long and the short leg is adjacent to the right angle is 17 units long, then

determine the length of the long leg of the triangle.
SAT
1 answer:
Vesnalui [34]2 years ago
4 0

The length of the long leg of the triangle is 144 units

<h3>Pythagoras theorem</h3>

Pythagoras theorem is used to solve the sides of a right angle triangle and can be represented as follows;

  • c² = a² + b²

where

c = hypotenuse

a and b are the other legs.

Therefore,

145² - 17² = b²

b²  = 21025 - 289

b² = 20736

b = √20736

b = 144

Therefore, the length of the longer leg of the triangle is 144 units

Carla fell when she skated too fast around the sharp curve.
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

adjective: sharp; adverb: fast

Explanation:

"sharp" describes "curve", which is a noun, and therefore, this is an adjective.

"fast" describes "skated" (I think), which is a verb, and therefore, this is an adverb.

Hope this helps!

What is the acceleration of a different speck of dust that is twice as far from the center of the disk?.
mariarad [96]

The acceleration of a different speck of dust is 40 m/s.

Since the radius is been given as double and angular velocity will be constant, we can calculate the centripetal acceleration as

a = (2r)ω²

If we substitute the given values of r= 2r , and ω²= 20m/s.

Then we have

a= (2*20) = 40 m/s^2

Therefore, acceleration of a different speck of dust is 40 m/s.

<h3>What is centripetal acceleration?</h3>

centripetal acceleration can be regarded as  acceleration of a body that is traversing a circular path.
