Megan is trying to find the length of the segment using the Pythagorean Theorem Part A : megan made one mistake in her work , which caused her to get the wrong answer what did she do wrong?

Part B : Calculate the correct length of the segment

10

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the length of the segment :

a² + b² = c²

a = 8 ; b = 6

8² + 6² = c²

64 + 36 = c²

100 = c²

Square root of both sides :

Sqrt(100) = sqrt(c²)

10 = c

Mistake in the solution is that 6² = 36 and not 12

3/4 ÷ 3/4

step-by-step explanation:

basically divide any proper fraction with itself to fit the criteria.

so if we are using 3/4, then:

3/4 ÷ 3/4 = 1

so 1 is the quotient.

and the numerators for both these fractions is 3.   and if we divide the numerators:

3 ÷ 3 = 1

we see that quotient is equal to our original quotient as well.

so a parallelogram is just like a square base times height. multiply 40 and 39 to get 1560 inches.

a triangle is base times height divided by two. so multiply 7.9 and 5 and then divide it by 2 to get 19.75inches.

the kite can be split into two separate triangles and added together to get the total area. 30 x 4 /2 which equals 60. make sure to double it for the two triangles making 120.
