To convert any unit to it's "milli-" form always multiply the given value by 1000. The new value will be the value of in the "milli-" form.
The question asked to us is to convert 3.521 g to mg (or milligram). Thus, all that we need to do is to multiply 3.521 with 1000 and we will get the corresponding value in milligrams. Thus, in mg, 3.521 g is:
mg
Answer:
longer leg: 20 in
shorter leg: 15 in
hypotenuse: 25 in
Formulas:
<u>Pythagorean Theorem</u>
c ... hypotenuse
a ... one leg
b ... another leg
Pythagorean theorem is used in right triangles (triangles in which one angle is 90°).
Step-by-step explanation:
longer leg: x
shorter leg: x - 5
hypotenuse: x + 5
To find x (longer leg), let's use Pythagorean theorem.
Now let's factorize to get solutions for x.
First solution:
Second solution:
Since a side of a triangle has to be a positive number, x is equal to 20.
Now let's just substitute x back to get side lengths. From the question the lengths are in inches.
longer leg: x = 20 in
shorter leg: x - 5 = 20 - 5 = 15 in
hypotenuse: x + 5 = 20 + 5 = 25 in
