Answer:

25√2 ≈ 35.36 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem can be used to find the leg length for the given conditions. It tells you the relation between legs a, b, and hypotenuse c is ...

c² = a² +b²

If a=b, and c=50, this becomes ...

50² = a² +a²

1250 = a² . . . . divide by 2

25√2 = a . . . . take the square root

The length of each leg is 25√2 ≈ 35.36 inches.

Answer:

4250 children

Step-by-step explanation:

72-38=34 degrees

34 degrees therefore is 578 people

so, 1 degree is 17 people

There is 360 degrees in a circle so we must subtract the degrees of the men and female segments in order to know how many degrees children takes up:

360-72-38=250

250x17=4250 children

What is the length of the line segment whose endpoints are A(-1,9) and B(7,4) in the simplest radical form?

monitta

length : $\sf \sqrt{89}$

Explanation:

use the distance formula : $\sf \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

using the formula:

$\sf \rightarrow \sf \sf \sqrt{(7--1)^2+(4-9)^2}$

$\sf \rightarrow \sf \sf \sqrt{(8)^2+(-5)^2}$

$\sf \rightarrow \sf \sf \sqrt{64+25}$

$\sf \rightarrow \sf \sf \sqrt{89}$
