Answer 1
Answer:

The length of the rope is 60 feet.

Given that, a flagpole is 53 feet tall. A rope is tied to the top of the flagpole and secured to the ground 28 feet from the base of the flagpole.

What is Pythagoras theorem?

The Pythagoras theorem which is also referred to as the Pythagoreantheorem explains the relationship between the three sides of a right-angled triangle. According to the Pythagoras theorem, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides of a triangle.

Let the length of the rope be x.

Now, x²=53²+28²

⇒x²=2,809+784

⇒x=59.94≈60

Therefore, the length of the rope is 60 feet.

Answer 2
Answer: So Pythagorean theorem, I assume.
remember: a^(2) +  b^(2) =  c^(2)
The a and b seems to be 53 and 28 (the order doesn't really matter)
so, 53^(2) + 28^(2) = c^(2)
OR \sqrt{53^(2) + 28^(2) } = c

Calculator time! 
√(2809 + 784)
√(3593) = c
59.94 ≈ c
Therefore, the rope is approximately 59.94 feet long.

How to find the x intercept in slope intercept form

Answers


-- The x-intercept is the point where the line crosses the x-axis.
-- 'Y' is zero at every point on the x-axis. 
-- So  y=0  at the x-intercept.

You say that you have the equation of the line, and it's in
slope/intercept form ?
                                      Y = mx + b
 Great !  

Just set  y=0.   Then you have      mx + b = 0 .
Solve that for 'x' , and you have the x-intercept.

(It turns out to be    x = - b/m .  Always true, and a very handy formula
to remember if you can, and then you always have the x-intercept at
your fingertips whenever you need it.)

Find the perimeter of the triangle 40 9

Answers

To solve for the perimeter of the triangle, first use Pythagorean theorem to solve for the hypotenuse and then add all of the sides together.

40 ^2 + 9^2
1600 + 81
1681 = C^2
41 = C

P = a + b + c
P = 40 + 9 + 41
P = 81 + 9
P = 90 units.

If you used 3/4 of the blue paint to make flames on one of the cars, and need 7 3/4 pints of blue paint to paint another car, what amount of blue paint do you need to buy?

Answers

3/4 of 7 pints were used. of, in this case, means to multiply. 3/4 x 7= 21/4= 5 and 1/4 pints. Now we subtract 5 and 1/4 (because this is how much was used) from 7. 7- 5 and 1/2 = 1 and 1/2

Ravi can type 6 words in 4 seconds. how many words can she type in 10 seconds.

Answers

If in four seconds, she can type six words, then we can guess that in eight seconds (4x2) she can type twelve words (6x2). Now, thats only for eight seconds, and we need two more to make ten. In four seconds, she types six words, so we need only two seconds, which would be half of six (3). And the 12+3 gives us 15 words in ten seconds. Sorry if its wrong, but hope i helped somehow :)
