Triangle ABC has side lengths 8 cm, 17 cm, and x cm. The side length of x is shorter than the longest side. What does the value of x need to be in order for the triangle to be considered a right triangle?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

8 cm and 15 cm

Answer 2

The measure of the side is 15 cm

The measure of the right angle triangle is 8 cm, 15 cm and 17 cm

What is a Triangle?

A triangle is a plane figure or polygon with three sides and three angles.

A Triangle has three vertices and the sum of the interior angles add up to 180°

Let the Triangle be ΔABC , such that

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°

The area of the triangle = ( 1/2 ) x Length x Base

For a right angle triangle

From the Pythagoras Theorem , The hypotenuse² = base² + height²

Given data ,

Let the triangle be represented as ΔABC

Now , the base of the triangle BC = 8 cm

The height of the triangle be AB = x cm

The hypotenuse of the triangle AC = 17 cm

So , for the triangle to be a right angle triangle ,

For a right angle triangle

From the Pythagoras Theorem , The hypotenuse² = base² + height²

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

AC² = AB² + BC²

So , AB² = AC² - BC²

On simplifying the equation , we get

AB² = 17² - 8²

AB² = 289 - 64

AB² = 225

Taking square roots on both sides of the equation , we get

AB = 15 cm

Therefore , the value of x is 15 cm

Hence , The measure of the side is 15 cm

The measure of the right angle triangle is 8 cm, 15 cm and 17 cm

You have 3/5gallon of juice and drink 1/3 gallons how much is left

Answers

Answer:

4/15 gallons of juice

Step-by-step explanation:

Total gallon you have = 3/5gallons

Amount consumed = 1/3 gallons

Amount left = Total gallons + Amount consumed

Amount left = 3/5-1/3

Find the LCM

amount left = (3)(3)-5(1)/15

Amount left = (9-5)/15

Amount left = 4/15

Hence 4/15 gallons of juice is left

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

they both go thur the point (0,-4)  so they both have the same b in the slope intercept from  of  y =mx +b

but.. they have a different slope... m , the graph has a slope m of 4/3 while the table has a slope of 1  , both positive.. :)

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

From the graph, using the point (3, 0) and (0, -4):

y - 0 = [(-4 - 0)/ (0 - 3)](x - 3)

y = (4/3)x - 4

From the table using (0, -4) and (2, -2):

y - (-4) = [(-2-(-4))/(2-0)](x - 0)

Consider a 176lb male farmer is in 104 degree heat. On this day, the humidity is low enough such that all the sweat evaporates from the farmer's skin, enabling him to maintain a body temperature of 100 degrees. The farmer sweats 1 liter of water per hour and 60% of the latent heat needed to Evan=pirate this sweat is provided by farmer's body. If the farmer suddenly dehydrates and stops sweating, how long will it take for his body temperature to rise to the near-fatal 104 degrees.

Answers

Answer:

t = 33 seconds

It is the amount of time when the temperature of the body will rise from 100 to fatal 104 in the absence of sweat.

Step-by-step explanation:

weight of the farmer = 176 lb

Sweating = 1 litre per hour

60% of above sweating is evaporated by the latent heat from farmers body.

Temperature outside = 104

Temperature of the Farmer = 100

Time to rise the temperature 4 degrees = ?

We need to use the specific heat formula to calculate the time to rise the temperature of the body of farmer.

Before, that let's convert weight of the farmer in Kg

W = 176 lb

1 lb = 0.453592 kg

176 lb = 79.8 kg

w = mg

g = 10

mass = m = 79.8/10

mass = 7.98 kg

Q = mc∆T

c = specific heat of water =  4,186

∆T  = Temperature Change = 104-100

∆T  = 4

Q = 7.98 x 4186 x 4

Q = 133617

t = Q/P

Power of Sun's Heat = 3.846×1026

t = 33 seconds

It is the amount of time when the temperature of the body will rise from 100 to fatal 104 in the absence of sweat.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The terms will be multiplied in order to get the simplified polynomials.

a. 6(x + 7)(x + 2)

[tex]6(x + 7)(x + 2)\\=6[x(x+2)+7(x+2)]\\=6(x^2+2x+7x+14)\\=6(x^2+9x+14)\\=6x^2+54x+84[/tex]

The simplified form of 6(x + 7)(x + 2) is [tex]6x^2+54x+84[/tex]

b. (2y – 5)^2

Using the formula: [tex](a-b)^2 = a^2+b^2-2ab[/tex]

[tex]=(2y)^2+(5)^2-2(2y)(5)\\=4y^2+25-20y[/tex]

The simplified form is: [tex]4y^2-20y+25[/tex]

c. (5x + 4y)(2x - y)

[tex]=5x(2x-y)+4y(2x-y)\\=10x^2-5xy+8xy-4y^2\\=10x^2+3xy-4y^2[/tex]

The simplified form of (5x + 4y)(2x - y) is [tex]10x^2+3xy-4y^2[/tex]

d. (3x + 7)(3x – 7)

Using the formula: [tex](a+b)(a-b) = a^2-b^2[/tex]

[tex]= (3x)^2-(7)^2\\= 9x^2-49[/tex]

The simplified form of (3x + 7)(3x – 7) is [tex]9x^2-49[/tex]

e. (t + 2) – (4t +9) – t

Enter the number of cups of bananas used for 1 cup of apples.
cups

Answers

Answer:

For every 1 cup of banana you have to add 6 cups of apples. So it means there's six times as much apples as there is bananas. If there's 3 cups of apples, which is half of 6, it means the banana would now also have to be halved from 1 to half a cup.

Whatever you do to the bananas or the apples, you have to maintain the same ratio. Which is that apples is 6 times as much as bananas.

So 1 cup of apple would need to be divided by 6, to get banana. That would be approximately 1÷6= 0.167 cups

Please help ASAP

Answers

Answer:

No point

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a trick question because if you break down the graphing equations to y=mx+b, you see that it is a linear graph, so it will have a straight line. For the first equations, y=x+3, you look at the original equations, y=mx+b. m=slope, b=x-intercept. Slope is rise/run (y/x) so the slope would be up one, over one (1/1=1). The x-intercept is 3 so its a straight line but it intercepts at 3. The next equation is the exact same thing, but the x-intercept is at 1. A straight line that intercepts at 1. So it is two parallel lines that never ever touch. So this is a trick question.

Answers

Answer: Choice D) [tex]\tan\left(\frac{5\pi}{8}\right) = - \sqrt{\frac{2+\sqrt{2}}{2-\sqrt{2}}}\\\\\\[/tex]

===================================================

Explanation:

Make sure your calculator is in radian mode. Use your calculator to find that tan(5pi/8) = -2.41421 which is approximate.

Since the value is negative, this means the answer is between choices C and D. You can use your calculator to compute those expressions given and you should find it matches with choice D.

----------------------

Further explanation:

We can apply the half angle identity for tangent like so

[tex]\tan\left(\frac{x}{2}\right) = \pm \sqrt{\frac{1-\cos(x)}{1+\cos(x)}}\\\\\\\tan\left(\frac{5\pi/4}{2}\right) = -\sqrt{\frac{1-\cos(5\pi/4)}{1+\cos(5\pi/4)}}\\\\\\\tan\left(\frac{5\pi}{8}\right) = -\sqrt{\frac{1-\left(-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right)}{1+\left(-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right)}}\\\\\\[/tex]

Simplifying further, we get

[tex]\tan\left(\frac{5\pi}{8}\right) = -\sqrt{\frac{1+\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}}{1-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}}}\\\\\\\tan\left(\frac{5\pi}{8}\right) = -\sqrt{\frac{2+\sqrt{2}}{2-\sqrt{2}}}\\\\\\[/tex]

Answer:

The correct options are;

1) Which type needs the highest temperature to grow

2) Do all of the types make food the same way

3) How long does it take for a specific type to make seeds

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of types of species in the orchid family = Several thousand

The tasks the gardening clubs are devoted to = Collecting, Studying, and growing of the orchids

The manner of the growth of the orchids = Difficulty observed in growing outside the orchid's natural habitat

Scientific questions are objective questions that are measurable, well defined about parameters that can be controlled which can be answered by means of an experiment and meant to provide a deeper understanding of the nature of the world around us

Therefore, the scientific questions that can be asked about a collection of different orchid types are;

1) Which type needs the highest temperature to grow

The above is a question that has a defined parameter (temperature) which is measurable and the answer can be provided by experimenting

2) Do all of the types make food the same way

An experiment with different orchid types will provide an answer to the above question

3) How long does it take for a specific type to make seeds

The length of time for it takes the seed to grow is measurable within an experiment.
