Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras.

c² = a² + b²

c being the Hypotenuse (the side opposite of the right angle).

so, the length of the rectangle is the Hypotenuse of the right-angled triangle on the top :

length² = 7² + 3² = 49 + 9 = 58

length = sqrt(58)

the diagonal of the rectangle is again the Hypotenuse of the right-angled triangle of length (sqrt(58)), width (x) and diagonal (9) of the rectangle.

so, we have

9² = sqrt(58)² + x² = 58 + x²

81 = 58 + x²

23 = x²

x = sqrt(23)

Answer:

First you need to find at least two dimensions of the triangle containing a side length of x. The triangle of the top can be used for that. The hypothenuse for the 7,3 triangle is \sqrt{58}.

Now we can use the other triangle with sides of x,\sqrt{58}, and a hypothenuse of 9 to find x.

x^2 + \sqrt{58}^2 = 9^2

simplify

x^2 + 58 = 81

subtract 58 from both sides

x^2 = 23

x = \sqrt{23\\}

and since this radical cannot be simplified further that is your answer.

The formula for circumference is C=2*pi*radius. Therefore your setup would be C=2*pi*3.1. When you actually work this out you get 19.5 after rounding.

Hanna baked a cake, she used 6 tenths of flour, 3 eggs and4 fifths of sugar. how man ingredients did she used..
lidiya [134]
Since the question wants to know how many ingredients she used, All we have to do is add them.

So as the question says, she used 6/10 flour, 3 eggs, and 4/5 sugar.

Now we have two fractions in this scenario. Let's make them have the same denominator. Either we divide 6/10 by 2 or multiply 4/5 by 2. Let's multiply.

4/5 × 2 = 8/10

Now we have 6/10, 3, and 8/10

Lets add them together.

3 + 6/10 = 3 and 6/10

Now 3 and 6/10 + 8/10 = 4 and 4/10

Simplify even further...

and your answer will be 4 and 2/5
