The length of the shorter leg is √2

<h3>Pythagoras theroem</h3>

To get the length of the shorter leg, we will use the Pythagoras theorem. According to the theorem:

hyp^2 = opp^2 + adj^2

Given the following

Hyp = √4

Opposite = √2

Required

Adjacent side

Substitute into the formula

(√4 )^2 = 2 + adj^2

4 - 2  = adj^2

adj^2 = 2

adj = √2

Hence the length of the shorter leg is √2

Three fair dice are rolled, one red, one green and one blue. What is the probability that the upturned faces of the three dice a
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:   \dfrac{5}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

When we throw a die , Total outcomes =6

When we throw 3 dice , Total outcomes = 6 x 6 x 6 = 216 [by fundamental counting principle]

Given : Three fair dice are rolled, one red, one green and one blue.

Favorable outcomes : When the upturned faces of the three dice are all of different numbers i.e. no repetition of numbers allowed

By Permutations , the number of favorable outcomes = ^6P_3=\dfrac{6!}{(6-3)!}=\dfrac{6!}{3!}=6\times5\times4=120

The probability that the upturned faces of the three dice are all of different numbers = \dfrac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}

=\dfrac{120}{216}=\dfrac{5}{9}

The probability that the upturned faces of the three dice are all of different numbers  is \dfrac{5}{9} .

Simplify the following expression using imaginary numbers. Express your answer in a + bi form
mamaluj [8]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

0 - 17i

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Given expression;

i⁸⁰ + i³⁸ - i17

To express the expression in the form a+bi;

<em>i. Rewrite the expression such that it contains terms in i²</em>

(i²)⁴⁰ + (i²)¹⁹ - i17

<em>ii. Solve the result from (i) above using the identity i² = -1</em>

We know that the square root of -1 is i. i.e

\sqrt{-1} = i

<em>Squaring both sides gives</em>

<em>=> </em>(\sqrt{-1} )^{2} = i^{2}<em />

=> -1 = i²

Therefore,

i² = -1

<em>Substitute i² = -1 in step (i) above</em>

(-1)⁴⁰ + (-1)¹⁹ - i17

<em>(iii) Solve the result in (ii)</em>

We know that the when a negative number is raised to the power of an even number, the result is a positive number. If it is raised to the power of an odd number, the result is a negative number. Therefore,

(-1)⁴⁰ + (-1)¹⁹ - i17 becomes

1 + (-1) - i17

0 - i17

<em>(iv) Write the result from (iii) in the form a+bi</em>

0 - 17i
