There is a rope running from the
top of a flagpole to a hook in the
ground. The flagpole is 6 meters
high, and the hook is 8 meters
from its base. How long is the
rope?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

10 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem for this one:

[tex]a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}[/tex]

If a = 6, b = 8, then:

[tex]a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}[/tex]

[tex]6^{2} + 8^{2} = c^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{6^{2} + 8^{2}} = c[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{36 + 64} = c[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{100} = c[/tex]

[tex]10 = c[/tex]

[tex]c = 10[/tex]

According to the Pythagorean theorem, if the flagpole is 6 meters high and the hook is 8 meters from its base, the rope is 10 meters long.

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

·[tex]\sqrt{8}[/tex]×[tex]\sqrt{18}[/tex]=[tex]\sqrt{144}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{144}[/tex]=12

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rule of radicals

[tex]\sqrt{a}[/tex] × [tex]\sqrt{b}[/tex] ⇔ [tex]\sqrt{ab}[/tex] and [tex]\sqrt{a}[/tex] × [tex]\sqrt{a}[/tex] = a

Given

[tex]\sqrt{8}[/tex] × [tex]\sqrt{18}[/tex]

Simplifying each radical

[tex]\sqrt{8}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{4(2)}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{4}[/tex] × [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] = 2[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{18}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{9(2)}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{9}[/tex] × [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] = 3[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Thus

[tex]\sqrt{8}[/tex] × [tex]\sqrt{18}[/tex]

= 2[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] × 3[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]

= 2 × 3 × [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] × [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]

= 6 × 2

= 12

Please Help! It’s due today!

Answers

Answer:

1) I know that the sum will be negative because a negative number added to another negative number will still be a negative number.

2) First, I simplified -35 + (-61) to -35 - 61, which just equals -96.

-54 + 17 equals 54-17 = 37.  

-96 < 37, so -35 + (-61) is less.

I just need number 32 and 33 please show work if you can​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Interior angle + Exterior angle = 180°.

Size of Interior angle = 180° - 360°/n.

Question 32:

Exterior angle = 72°

Interior angle = 180° - 72° = 108°.

Therefore 180° - 360°/n = 108°, n = 5 => 5 sides.

Question 33:

Exterior angle = 36°

Interior angle = 180° - 36° = 144°.

Therefore 180° - 360°/n = 144°, n = 10 => 10 sides.

Answer: 32.) 108°. 5 sides

33.) 144°. 10 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an interior angle subtract the given exterior angle from 180.

180 - 72 = 108

180 - 36 = 144

To find the number of sides of a regular polygon, divide 360 by the exterior angle.

360/72 = 5

360/36 = 10

50.27

The volume of the cone created by mike with diameter of 3 feet is 50.24 feet³

Volume of cone-based problem:

What information do we have?

Diameter of cone = 8 feet

Height of cone = 3 feet

Radius of cone = 8 / 2

Radius of cone = 4 feet

Volume of cone = (1/3)(π)(r²)(h)

Volume of cone = (1/3)(3.14)(4²)(3)

Volume of cone = (1/3)(3.14)(16)(3)

Volume of cone = 50.24 feet³
