X = 39ft
It’s the same units as house A it’s just a reflection
In this case we are dealing with the pythagorean theorm involving right angled triangles. This theorm states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2 which means the square of the hypotenuse (side c, opposite the right angle) is equal to the square of the remaining two sides.
In this case we will say that a = 3963 miles which is the radius of the earth. c is equal to the radius of the earth plus the additional altitude of the space station which is 250 miles; therefore, c = 4213 miles. We must now solve for the value b which is equal to how far an astronaut can see to the horizon.
(3963)^2 + b^2 = (4213)^2
b^2 = 2,044,000
b = 1430 miles.
The astronaut can see 1430 miles to the horizon.
Answer:
1) Yes
2) No
3) Yes
4) Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember the rule: the sum of the two shortest sides must be bigger than the longest side. From there, the answers should be obvious. Just add up the smallest sides for each triplet of lengths and see if that is bigger than the largest side.
7 + 14 > 18, therefore this can be a triangle
3 + 8 < 17, therefore this can't be a triangle
3.2 + 9.0 > 11.5, therefore this can be a triangle
6 + 7 > 8, therefore this can be a triangle
