short leg: x
long leg: 5x + 19
hypotenuse: 5x + 20
(short leg)² + (long leg)² = hypotenuse
(x)² + (5x + 19)² = (5x + 20)²
x² + 25x² + 190x + 361 = 25x² + 200x + 400
x² - 10x - 39 = 0 <em>subtracted 25x², 200x, and 400 from both sides</em>
(x - 13)(x + 3) = 0
x - 13 = 0 , x + 3 = 0
x = 13 x = -3 <em>length cannot be negative so disregard -3</em>
long leg: 5x + 19 = 5(13) + 19 = 65 + 19 = 84
hypotenuse: 5x + 20 = 5(13) + 20 = 65 + 20 = 85
Answer: short leg = 13, long leg = 84, hypotenuse = 85
Answer:
573.6 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you of the relationship of right triangle sides and angles:
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
This tells us ...
tan(61°) = (height)/(distance to first point)
or
distance to first point = height/tan(61°)
Likewise, ...
distance to second point = height/tan(32°)
Then the difference of the distances is ...
distance to second point - distance to first point
= height/tan(32°) -height/tan(61°)
600 ft = height × (1/tan(32°) -1/tan(61°))
Dividing by the coefficient of height, we have ...
height = (600 ft)/(1/tan(32°) -1/tan(61°)) ≈ (600 ft)/(1.04603) ≈ 573.6 ft
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Formula for area of rectangle:</u>
= length × width
<u>Area of the smaller rectangle:</u>
length = 7
width = 6
= 7 × 6
= 42
<u>Area of the larger rectangle:</u>
length = 7 + 4 = 11
width = 6 + 2 = 8
= 11 × 8
= 88
<u>Area of the shaded region:</u>
= Area of the larger rectangle - Area of the smaller rectangle
= 88 - 42
= 46

Answer:
36⁄125 or if we are talking about the lowest term it is 9
/3125
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: 0.288 = 288⁄1000
Step 2: Simplify 288⁄1000 = 36⁄125 Percent" or "%" means "out of 100" or "per 100",
<em>Or for the lowest term:</em>
Therefore 0.288% can be written as
0.288
100
.
Next, we can multiply by
1
in the form of
1000
1000
to eliminate the decimal in the numerator:
1000
1000

0.288
100
⇒
1000
×
0.288
1000

100
⇒
288
100000
.
We can now reduce the fraction as:
288
100000
⇒

3125
⇒
