Step-by-step explanation:

For a triangle to have a right angle the square sums of the legs have to equal the square of the hypotenuse.

In this case 9 is the hypotenuse which is the longest side in a triangle. 5 and 7 are the two smaller sides which make them the legs.

Putting this set of numbers into the pythagorean theorem is the way to solve this.

5²+7² should equal 9² if the triangle is a right triangle.

Solve the squares: 25+49=81

This would add up to be 74 and that is not equal to 81, so by this statement we can conclude that 5, 7, and 9 do not make a right triangle.

First rectangle:
Has 3 cubes in each 5 layers, and imagine it, so we have all dimension needed which is:
l=3 unit
w=1 unit
h=5 unit.
V=l×w×h
V=3×1×5
V=15 cubic inches.

Second rectangular:
Doing the same like that to get:
l=5 unit
w=1 unit
h=3 unit
V=15 cubic inches. As a result, there are no prism that are greater to each other, which mean that they have the same volume of 15 cubic inches. Hope it help!

Luke plots his favorite places to go in his town on a coordinate plane. His 4 favorite places, the skateboard park, the ice crea

We are given that:

The skateboard park is located at the point (-3,5),

the ice cream shop is located at the point (-3,6),

and the comic book store is located at (4,6).

We are also given that the four coordinates forms a rectangle.

Here we already have two matching x- coordinates as -3 and y coordinates as 6.

Now we must have two matching x and y coordinates too.

As shown in figure , if we have the last coordinate as (4,5), it will complete the rectangle.
