Answer 5

Question 5

The length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is 137 units. The length of one leg of the triangle is 105. Gina wrote the following step to find the length of the unknown leg:

Length of the unknown leg = 137^2 − 105^2 = 18,769 − 11,025 = 7,744 units

Which statement best explains whether Gina's step is correct or incorrect?
 It is incorrect because the length of the unknown side is the square root of 29,794.
 It is incorrect because the length of the unknown side is the square root of 7,744.
 It is correct because the length of the unknown side is the difference of the lengths of the sides.-wrong
 It is correct because the length of the unknown side is the difference of the squares of the sides.

Answer 6

Question 6

Answer 8

@jim_thompson5910 @hartnn @Kamille @phi

Answer 9

yes i did. and the subject overall is easy, i agree, but i need to figure out what i did wrong.

Answer 10

my work for #1 was this-
5^2+12^2=169
13^2=169
B=17
A=13
so i guessed on the question

Answer 11

Actually for the distance you just add how far they moved. So Britney moved 5 north and 7 west. So 5+7=12.
Alice moves from the school directly to the library.
So that's when you use the Pythagorean theorem b/c you don't know the hypotenuse.

Answer 12

Okay?

Answer 13

how did you get 7 for going west?

Answer 14

actually not 7, its 12 so 5+12=17

Answer 15

my mistake.

Answer 16

ok, so i was right about that part

Answer 17

btw- b=brintney and A=alice

Answer 18

Are you missing an option?

Answer 19

nope

Answer 20

Britney is 17 and Alice is 13.

Answer 21

WOOWW, The graph counts by 2's

Answer 22

Not 1's.

Answer 23

so it would be 10! (right?)

Answer 24

@wmj259 ?

Answer 25

So I went back through and did a double take and here is what I got so far-->
1-10
2-idek
3-112
4-idek
5-b
6-22.5
Am I right/can I have help with 2 & 4?

Answer 26

1 should be 8 miles.

Answer 27

2.) \[V=\frac{ 4 }{ 3 }*\pi*r ^{3}\]

Answer 28

3.) Pythagorean Theorem, solve for leg.
