The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 26 mm. One leg of the right triangle is 10 mm. What is the length of the other leg? (4 points) Group of answer choices 18 mm 20 mm 24 mm 28 mm

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

24 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is a right triangle, we can use Pythagorean theorem

$a^2+b^2=c^2$

where a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse.

We know one of the legs is 10, and the hypotenuse is 26, so we can substitute 10 in for a, and 26 in for c.

$10^2+b^2=26^2$

Solve the exponents

$100+b^2=676$

Now, solve for b. To do this, get b by itself.

First, subtract 100 from both sides

$100-100+b^2=676-100$

$b^2=576$

Take the square root of both sides

$√(b^2)=√(576)$

b=24

So, the other leg is 24 mm

If Mary read 2/5 of a page every minute, how long would she take to read 240 pages

Answers

First convert 2/5 into a decimal. So divide the numerator by denominator. So 2÷5= 0.4 or 0.40 (both are same). So now divide:
240
÷0.40
--------
600

So, 600 is the answer.

so 2/5 is to 1 minute (that means 2/5:1 not 2/5=1)
240 is to x minute
convert to fraction
(2/5)/1=240/x
multiply both sides by x
(2/5x)/1=240
2x/5=240
multipy both sides by 5 to get rid of fraction
2x=1200
divide by 2
x=600
600 minutes or 10 hours

a diver descends from an elevation of 6 feet below sea level to an elevation of 98 feet below sea level in 4 equal intervals. What was the diver's change in elevation in each interval? Explain your answer.

Answers

The diver's change in elevation in each interval is, 23

What is an expression?

Mathematical expression is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Given that;

A diver descends from an elevation of 6 feet below sea level to an elevation of 98 feet below sea level in 4 equal intervals.

Hence, The diver's change in elevation in each interval is,

⇒ (98 - 6) / 4

⇒ 92 / 4

⇒ 23

Thus, The diver's change in elevation in each interval is, 23

#SPJ3

98-6=92. This represents the amount of space he has to dive.
92/4=23. This represents your equal intervals.

So the answer is that the diver dove in equal intervals of 23 ft.

What is the easiest way to find the perimeter of a triangle

Answers

The easiest way is to write down the length of each side, and then add up
the three numbers.

In fact, that's the ONLY way to find the perimeter. If anything else needs to
be done, that's usually because you don't know all three lengths yet, and
you have to find a missing length. Once you accomplish that, you ALWAYS
find the perimeter by adding them up.

add all the sides
side 1+ side 2+side 3= perimeter of the triangle

Answers

lemonade sugar. lemon juice water

6 glasses...........1/2.................1/2................51/2

x=(10*1/2)/6
x=10/2/6
x=5/6 sugar

y=x=5/6 lemon juice

z=(51/2*10)/6
z=(510/2)/6
z=255/6 water
