7. What is the length of the altitude CD in the figure?O A. 2.7B. 2.2C. 3.9O D. 3.3BackNext

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

The length of the altitude CD is 3.3 units .

Option (D) is correct .

Step-by-step explanation:

By using the pythagorean theorem

Hypotenuse² = Perpendicular² + Base²

Now in ΔCDA

Hypotenuse = CA = 6 unit

Base = AD = 5 units

Perpendicular = CD

Put all the values in the above

6² = CD² + 5²

6² = 36

5² = 25

CD² = 6² - 5²

= 36 - 25

CD² = 11

$CD = √(11)$

CD = 3.3 unit (Approx)

Therefore the length of the altitude CD is 3.3 units .

Option (D) is correct .

Answer 2

Answer: We have a right triangle:
hypotenuse=6
leg₁=5
leg₂=CD

Pythagoras theorem:
hypotenuse²=leg₁²+leg₂²

6²=5²+CD²

CD=√(6²-5²)
CD=√(36-25)
CD=√11≈3.3166....≈3.3

Answer: D. 3.3

Goal # = 82

Since we know we can't get "2"
using a multiple of the number [10]
therefore we must check [8]

[8] * 4 = 32
72 - 32 = 40
40 / [10] = 4

[] = $ per job

With this information we could say that:

Answers

D= Densitym= massV= VolumeD=m÷V= 8÷32D= 1/4

D = m/v
D = 32g/8cm^3
D = 4g/cm^3

I am write the other answer is wrong. She got her numbers mixed. Mass is calculated using grams and volume is calculated using cm cubed.

True or False it's possible to build a triangle with side lengths of 5,5, and 10.

Answers

It's not possible, because the sum of the lenghts of every two sides of a triangle has to be greater than the length of the third one. It this case that condition isn't met: $5+5\not>10$
