To solve these type of problems you need to use the pythagoras theorem ⇨ Hypotenuse² = Base² + Altitude².
Here,
- Altitude = 1.6 cm.
- Base = 1.2 cm
- Hypotenuse = x
Now, let's solve for x.
Hypotenuse² = Base² + Altitude²
x² = (1.2)² + (1.6)²
x² = 1.44 + 2.56
x² = 4
x = √4
x = <em><u>2</u></em><em><u>.</u></em>
- So, the value of x is <em><u>2</u><u> </u><u>cm.</u></em>
<h3>
<u>NOTE</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>
- Pythagoras theorem can be used only in the cases of right-angled triangles. Here, it's given that the triangle is right angled so we can use this theorem.
- To solve the squares if decimals, take them as whole numbers & then just add the decimal points. For example, ⇨ for (1.2)², take it as 12² , then multiply 12 by 12, you'll get 144. Now, add the decimal place accordingly ⇨ 1.44 . So, (1.2)² = 1.44.
I believe you meant to say that if Samantha bought 510 pounds of hamburger, how much will she pay?
Now from the information we already have, we know that 3 pounds of hamburger will cost 6 dollars.
The next thing we need to know is how much one pound of hamburger will cost. This will help us calculate how much the rest will cost.
we now form an equation to assist us.
3 = 6
1= x
(where x represents the unknown price of one pound of hamburger)
Now we must cross-multiply:
3 * x = 6 x 1
3x = 6
x = 6/3
x = 2
therefore one pound of hamburger costs 2 dollars.
Now, If one pound costs 2 dollars, how about 510 pounds?
We simply multiply: 510 x 2 = 1,020
Therefore Samantha will pay 1, 020 dollars for 510 pounds of hamburger.
The Jasmine result is the good one because 1 mégas meter=1 000 000
