!30 POINTS! How Can I Use This Trapezoid To Prove The Pythagorean Theorem?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Pythagorean Theorem: c2 = a2 + b2

Find the area by adding the areas of the three triangles. The area of a right triangle is: A = ½bh

Two triangles are identical so you can just multiply the area of the first triangle by two: 2A1 = 2(½bh) = 2(½ab) = ab.

The total area of the trapezoid is : A1 + A2 = ab + ½c2

You multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of the ½: (a2 + 2ab + b2) = 2ab + c2

You subtract out the 2ab: a2 + b2 = c2.

Then what is left is the proof: a2 + b2 = c2

Let the missing Angle be " x "

We know that Measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to sum of the opposite two interior angles,

that is :

x + 80° = 100°

x = 100° - 80°

x = 20°

value of missing angle = 20°

37.

Linda walked 3/4 (or 75%) of a track which is 3.5 miles long

Multiply 0.75 by 3.5 to get 2.625 miles (or 2 and 5/8 miles)

38.

We need to multiply the 2 and 3/8 mile track by 2 and a half (2 and 0.5)

1/8 is 0.125  

2/8 is 0.25

3/8 is 0.375

The track is 2.375 miles long.

Multiply 2.375 by 2.5

The track will be 5.9375 miles long after 5 years ( or 5 and 15/16 miles)

Step-by-step explanation:

37) ¾×7/2

21/8 miles = 2⅝miles .

38) (19/8×5/2)+19/8

= 95/16+19/8

= 133/16 = 8 5/16 miles .

you are driving to a friends house at 35 miles per hour and the friend lives 21 miles away. how long to get to the house

Answers

Answer:

35miles/1 hr=21miles/x hr

= x hr* 35miles/1 hr= 21 miles

= x = 21/35 =0.6 hr

So, traveling at 35mph it will take 0.6 hours to travel 21 miles.

If you want time in mins then keep going:

=> 60 mins = 1 hour, 0.6 hours = x mins

60mins/1 hr = x mins/ 0.6 hr

0.6 * 60 mins = 36 mins.

:. It takes 0.6 hrs or 36 mins to drive 21 miles at a constant speed of 35mph

On Tuesday at lunchtime, it was -10°C. By sunset, the
temperature had dropped 14°C.

Answers

-24 Celsius that is the answer

Answer:

By sunset the temperature was -24

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason for this is you start off with -10, then the word dropping relates to subtraction, meaning that the equation is -10-14, and when you subtract a negative, you are actually adding to it, so you can drop the negative for now, and you have 10+14 which equals 24, then add the sign back in to get -24C.

a rectangular hall is 16 m tall and 12 metre wide. how many marble slabs of size 25 CM X 15cm needed to cover the floor of the hall?​

Answers

Answer:

5120 tiles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Do one thing.

Find out the area of the rectangular hall.

Find out the area of the marble slab.

Remember, the units are to be made same.

Now, to know the number of marble tiles required to fill the hall, you just have to divide the area of the hall with the area of the marble tile.

Calculations-

Area of the rectangular hall = length x width = 1600 x 1200 (we converted 'm' to 'cm') = 1920000 sq. cm.

Area of one marble tile = 25 x 15 = 375 sq. cm.

Now you divide the numbers and get 5120 tiles.

Donna is collecting stamps. On the first day, she collects 5. On the second day, she collects 9. Each day, she collects 4 more stamps than the day before. How many total stamps will she have after 20 days?

Answers

Answer:

81 stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we will use the AP formula

We know that

a_n = a + (n - 1)d

a = first term = 5

n = number of terms = 20

d = common difference = 9 - 5 = 4

On putting values

=> a_20 = 5 + (20 - 1)4

=> a_20 = 5 + (19)4

=> a_20 = 5 + 76

=> a_20 = 81

Therefore,

She will have 81 stamps after 20 days

[tex]\huge{\purple{\underline{\underline{\sf{\pink{ANSWER:-}}}}}}[/tex]

Here we have,

first term (a) = 5

no. of terms (n) = 20

common difference (d) = 9 - 5 = 4

[tex]\implies\tt{a_n = a + (n - 1) \times d} \\ \\ \implies\tt{a_20 = 5 + (20 - 1) \times 4} \\ \\ \implies\tt{a_20 = 5 + 19 \times 4} \\ \\ \implies\tt{a_20 = 5 + 76} \\ \\ \implies\tt{a_20 = 81}[/tex]

Hence, there will be 81 stamps after 20 days.

Answer:

She made 138, 179 two point field goals and 118

3-point field goals during the regular season

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

118, 138, and 179 points

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 3-point goals

2-point goals = 2x - 57

free throws = 2x - 57 - 41

3x + 2x * (2x - 57) + (2x - 57 - 41) = 850

3x + 4x - 114 + 2x - 98 = 850

9x = 1062

x = 118

2x - 57 = 2 * 118 - 57 = 179

2x - 57 - 41 = 138
