If u can recall the formula for Pythagoras’ in a right angle triangle. Its a^2 + b^2 = c^2 , where C is the hypotenuse. As you can tell from the question , we have been given 2 sides. Now you will need to...

As you can see from the question there are 6 parts that 270 needs to be divided by. One sixth of 270 is equal to 45 and so one of the parts is equal to 45. To get the ratio, you have to simply multiply th...

Firstly, lets name each equation A and B- this will help us later. If I told you what x was, you would be able to use either equation to find y- easy! so lets first find one unknown (x or y) then use that...

x=1, y=3; Firstly, rearranging for x in the first equation: x = (7-2y); Substitute this into the second equation: 3y - (7 -2y) = 8; Expand: 3y -7 +2y = 8 (watch negative) 3y +2y = 15 Therefore, 5y = 15 an...

Step 1: Draw a labelled diagram of the triangle, marking the side lengths. Step 2: Recall Pythagoras’ theorem equation ‘c2=a2+b2’ Step 3: Substitute the values of a and b into the equation. c2=8.652+10.15...
