Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagorean theorem,

hypotenuse² = (leg₁)² + (leg₂)²

                     = 38² + 27²

                     = 1444 + 729

                     = 2173

hypotenuse = √2173 = 46.6  cm

In parallelogram QRST QS RT Is QRST a rectangle ?
fomenos

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the QRST is a parallelogram and the diagonals QS and RT are congruent.

According to the property of parallelogram if the length of diagonals are same, then the parallelogram is rectangle. We can also prove it.

Let QRST be an parallelogram and QS=RT.

In triangles QRT and RQS.

RT=QS         (Diagonals)

QR=QR         (Common side)

QT=RS         (Opposite sides of the parallelogram are same)

So by SSS rule of congruence, triangle QRT and triangle RQS are congruent.

By CPCT,

\angle R=\angle Q

Since the sum of two consecutive angles of a parallelogram is 180 degree.

\angle R+\angle Q=180

2\angle R=180

\angle R=90

Therefore the measure of angle R and angle Q are 90 degree.

Similarly in triangle QST and RTS,

RT=QS         (Diagonals)

ST=ST         (Common side)

QT=RS         (Opposite sides of the parallelogram are same)

So by SSS rule of congruence, triangle QST and RTS are congruent.

By CPCT,

\angle S=\angle T

Since the sum of two consecutive angles of a parallelogram is 180 degree.

Therefore the measure of angle S and angle T are 90 degree.

Since the measure of all interior angles of QRST are 90 degree, therefore the parallelogram QRST  is a rectangle.

Constance's car has a 12-gallon gas
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

7.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Constance's car has a 12-gallon gas tank.

She can travel 25 miles on one gallon of gas, so she can travel

25\cdot 12=300 miles using all gas from the tank.

Constance begins with a full tank of gas and drives at a constant rate of 40 miles per hour.

So, Constance can drive for

300 : 40=7.5 hours.

What is the factorization of 729^15+1000​
Nesterboy [21]

\bf \textit{difference and sum of cubes} \\\\ a^3+b^3 = (a+b)(a^2-ab+b^2) \\\\ a^3-b^3 = (a-b)(a^2+ab+b^2) \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ \begin{cases} 729=27^2\\ \qquad (3^3)^2\\ 1000=10^3 \end{cases}\implies 729^{15}+1000\implies ((3^3)^2)^{15}+10^3 \\\\\\ ((3^2)^{15})^3+10^3\implies (3^{30})^3+10^3\implies (3^{30}+10)~~[(3^{30})^2-(3^{30})(10)+10^2] \\\\\\ (3^{30})^3+10^3\implies (3^{30}+10)~~~~[(3^{60})-(3^{30})(10)+10^2]

now, we could expand them, but there's no need, since it's just factoring.
