Help!

Answer 1

@satellite73

Answer 2

the most famous of all right triangles is the 3- 4 - 5 right triangle
if you double all the sides you still have a right triangle, the measure will be \[6:8:10\]

Answer 3

so A?

Answer 4

@jim_thompson5910

Answer 5

correct

Answer 6

@jim_thompson5910

Answer 7

the length of the diagonal of a square is the length of the side times the square root of two

Answer 8

so find the SR of 2 and x by 3

Answer 9

no, just select \(3\sqrt2\)

Answer 10

oh..easy enough.

Answer 11

yes easy especially since you were given choices

Answer 12

What about dis 1?

Answer 13

you go to connexus?

Answer 14

29 4/5?

Answer 15

AAAAAAA!!!!!!

Answer 16

4/5 = 0.8
21/25 = 0.84

Answer 17

looks like a calculator exercise to me

Answer 18

yeah do with your choice

Answer 19

ok, what about this one?

Answer 20

another three four five right triangle, only this one i s
nine, twelve, ___

Answer 21

15

Answer 22

bingo

Answer 23

Almost done.

Answer 24

i ended up with 23.8=23 4/5. but thats not an option

Answer 25

@satellite73

Answer 26

9*sqrt(7) = 23.81176 approximately

use a calculator to see which option is closest to 23.81176

Answer 27

ok...I got 23 4/5 is that correct?

Answer 28

it's not in your list of choices

Answer 29

i know, what is the fraction version?

Answer 30

subtract each and apply the absolute value to make the result positive

| 23.8117617 - (23+19/20) | = 0.1382383
| 23.8117617 - (23+17/20) | = 0.0382383
| 23.8117617 - (23+3/4) | = 0.0617617
| 23.8117617 - 63 | = 39.1882383

which result is the smallest?

Answer 31

i have to say this is a rather bizarre question
'you are given an answer in radical form and then asked to write it as a mixed number? who writes this nonsense?

Answer 32

????

Answer 33

school these days :/

Answer 34

What do we do know?

Answer 35

@horsegirl325 do you see how I did those subtractions?

the goal is to get as close to 0 as possible so we can get the best approximation

Answer 36

ok....what do you want me to solve?

Answer 37

@jim_thompson5910 what next????

Answer 38

@misty1212 what about u?

Answer 39

which of the following is the smallest

0.1382383
0.0382383
0.0617617
39.1882383

Answer 40

I think it's the second one.

Answer 41

2nd

Answer 42

@jim_thompson5910

Answer 43

yes 0.0382383 is the smallest of the four, so that confirms 23+17/20 is the closest

Answer 44

Ya!

Answer 45

I need help with only a couple more.

Answer 46

Okay.

Answer 47

@jim_thompson5910

Answer 48

I think it might be 17, given the spaces between it, but that's just my personal guess from counting from one point to the next.

Answer 49

see attached

Answer 50

17!

Answer 51

is it @jim_thompson5910 ?

Answer 52

yes 17

Answer 53

:D

Answer 54

can u set this one up?

Answer 55

@jim_thompson5910

Answer 56

I think it might be ten or eleven, thoughts?

Answer 57

8^2+8^2=z^2

Answer 58

you have the correct equation so far, @horsegirl325

Answer 59

i got 11.3

Answer 60

same here

Answer 61

thats not right tho, it has to be approximate

Answer 62

well you just round at that point

Answer 63

so 11?

Answer 64

yes

Answer 65

That's what I thought, but I also thought it might be ten. So that's why I didn't have a definitive answer.

Answer 66

2 41/50?

Answer 67

oh wait, I messed up

Answer 68

the vertical distance is not 8

Answer 69

y = 1 to y = 7 is a change of 6, not 8

Answer 70

i knew it!!

Answer 71

so you need to solve 8^2 + 6^2 = z^2

Answer 72

so 10!!

Answer 73

correct

Answer 74

what about this one?

Answer 75

I think it might be C. I calculated it and got 2.82843.

Answer 76

you got 2 & 41/50?

that's the closest number to 2*sqrt(2) = 2.8284

Answer 77

Yeah, that's what I got.

Answer 78

yep.

Answer 79

2 & 41/50 is correct

Answer 80

the last one!!

Answer 81

A? @jim_thompson5910

Answer 82

Possibly. They don't list the values of the triangles so it's hard to know.

Answer 83

Where is everyone?

Answer 84

????

Answer 85

you have to check to see if a^2 + b^2 = c^2 is true for each set of numbers

Answer 86

for instance, if we try out choice B

a^2 + b^2 = c^2
50^2 + 40^2 = 60^2
2500 + 1600 = 3600
4100 = 3600 ... false

since the last equation is false, that means choice B does NOT form a right triangle
