The hypotenuse of a right triangle is one inch longer than the longer leg. The shorter leg is seven inches shorter than the longer leg. Find the length of the hypotenuse.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Length of hypotenuse is 13 unit or 5 unit

Step-by-step explanation:

Find;

Length of hypotenuse

Computation;

Assume;

Length of hypotenuse = h

Length of longer leg = h - 1

Length of shorter leg = h - 1 - 7

Using Pythagorean theorem

hypotenuse² = longer leg² + shorter leg²  

h² = (h - 1)² + (h - 1 - 7)²  

h² = (h - 1)² + (h - 8)²  

h² = h² - 2h + 1 + h² - 16h + 64  

h² = 2h² - 18h + 65

h² - 18h + 65 = 0

h² - 13h - 5h + 65 = 0

h(h - 13) -5(h - 13)

(h - 13)(h - 5)

So,

Length of hypotenuse is 13 unit or 5 unit

calculate the compound interest on an investment of R6500 at 7,5% per annum invested for 3 years​

Answers

Answer:

Compound interest = Rs 1,575 (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount invested = R.s 6,500

Rate of interest = 7.5% per annum

Number of year = 3 year

Find:

Amount of compound interest

Computation:

Compound interest = P[(1+r)ⁿ - 1]

Compound interest = 6500[(1+7.5%)³ - 1]

Compound interest = 6500[(1+0.075)³ - 1]

Compound interest = 6500[(1.075)³ - 1]

Compound interest = 6500[1.2423 - 1]

Compound interest = 6500[0.2423]

Compound interest = 1574.95

Compound interest = Rs 1,575 (Approx.)

Find the number of moles of Argon in 97.37 grams.

Answers

Answer:

n = 2.43 moles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given mass, m = 97.37 grams

The mass of Argon is, M = 39.948 g/mol

We know that,

No. of moles = given mass/molar mass

[tex]n=\dfrac{97.37}{39.948}\\\\n=2.43\ moles[/tex]

Hence, there are 2.43 moles of Argon.



A certain television is advertised as a 59-inch TV (the diagonal length). If the width of

the TV is 49 inches, how tall is the TV? Round to the nearest tenth of an inch.

Answers

Answer:

32.9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

this can be solved using Pythagoras theorem

The Pythagoras theorem : a² + b² = c²

where a = length

b = base = 49

c =  hypotenuse = diagonal = 59

l² + 49² = 59²

l² = 59² - 49²

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

Explanation:

Triangle UBD is congruent to triangle RAN

Note the order of the lettering as it's important.

BD and AN are the last two letters of UBD and RAN in that order. Therefore, these sides correspond and BD = AN. From that, we know,

BD = AN

2y+5 = 3y+2

5-2 = 3y-2y

3 = 1y

y = 3

-----------

Using similar logic, UD and RN are the first and last letters of UBD and RAN respectively. So,

UD = RN

Answers

Answer:

The answer is option c) 56.5 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of shaded region =

Area of Big Circle - ( Area of 1st small circle+ Area of 2nd small circle )

Area of 1st small circle:

π x r²

r = 3ft

Area =  3.14 x 3 x 3 => 28.26 ft²

Area of 2st small circle:

π x r²

r = 3ft

Area =  3.14 x 3 x 3 => 28.26 ft²

Area of big circle:

π x r²

r = 6ft ( ∵ Diameter of 1st small circle = 6 and since 2 small circles have equal area, their diameter should be the radius of big circle )

Area =  3.14 x 6 x  6 => 113.04 ft²

Area of shaded region => 113.04 - (28.26 + 28.26 )

=> 113.04 - 56.52

=> 56.52 ft²

Shannon won $200 dollars playing Bingo last week. This week she won

55.5% increase

125% decrease

55.5% decrease

125% increase

Answers

Answer: 125% increase

Step-by-step explanation: She won 200 dollars last week and now she won 450. If more, less divides. So 450 is more than 200.

This would give you 450/200. You're trying to find percentage so you multiply by a hundred. 450/200 * 100. This will give you 125%

Suma masurilor a doua unghiuri este egala cu 180(de grade). Determinati masura fiecarui unghi stiind ca unul dintre unghiuri are masura egala cu 20% din masura celuilalt unghi

Answers

Answer:

150 grados

30 grados

Step-by-step explanation:

Sea x la medida del primer ángulo

Sea la medida del segundo ángulo y

Según la pregunta;

x + y = 180 -------- (1)

De la segunda oración;

x = 0,2 años -------- (2)

Sustituyendo (2) en (1)

0,2 años + y = 180

1,2 años = 180

y = 180 / 1,2

y = 150 grados

Pero;

x = 0,2 años

Entonces

x = 0,2 (150)

x = 30 grados

Por eso;

y = 150 grados

x = 30 grados

This triangle is made by the anchor of the balloon to the ground, the balloon, and the area on the ground directly below the balloon.

The hypotenuse of the triangle is the 170 m string.

The angle of inclination is 50 degrees.

The height of the triangle will be opposite of the angle of inclination.

Therefore,

sin(50) = height/170 (opposite/hypotenuse)

170sin(50) = 130.2 meters
