Gary used landscape timbers to create a boarder around a garden shaped like a right triangle. the longest two timbers he used are 12 feet and 15 feet long. which is closest to the length, in feet, of the shortest timber?
a. 5.2
b. 3
c. 7.3
d. 9

The answer to your question is letter D

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

hypotenuse = h = 15 ft

adjacent leg = a = 12 ft

opposite leg = b = ?

Formula

We must use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this problem

                      h² = a² + b²

Substitution

Solve for b

                     b² = h² - a²

                     b² = 15² - 12²

                     b² = 225 - 144

                     b² = 81

Result

                     b = 9 ft                    

answer: the value should be used for i in the formula of calculation the monthly payment , the interest rate per period is 0.85.

step-by-step explanation:

the given rate of interest i= 85%

in calculating the monthly payment for a loan with an interest rate compounded monthly, the value of the interest rate per period we use in the formula must be in decimal form.

to convert it in decimal, we divide it by 100, we get

hence, the value should be used for i in the formula of calculation the monthly payment , the interest rate per period is 0.85.

their are no angles. sorry cant .
