the triangle Loom is made from wood strips shaped into a 45 45 90 triangle. pegs are placed every half inch along the hypotenuse and every quarter inch along each leg. suppose you make a loom with an 18 inch hypotenuse. approximately how many pegs will you need

36 pegs (for the hypotenuse)

About 51 pegs (for the legs)

138 pegs (total)

Step-by-step explanation:

Along the hypotenuse, the pegs are placed every half-inch. That would make 2 pegs per inch. Multiply 2 x 18 to get 36.

The legs are each 9 sqrt 2. This is 12.7279220614. The pegs are placed at each quarter inch for the legs. This is 4 per inch. So multiply 12.7279220614 x 4 to get 50.9116882454. Round this to 51.

Add 51 + 51 for the legs total pegs. You get 102. Add 102 + 36 to get 138 pegs total.

Hope it helps!

step-by-step explanation:

(2x + 16) + (x) = 180

step-by-step explanation:

given,

abcd is a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle

angle a is labeled x plus 16, (x + 16)

angle b is labeled x degrees, (x)

angle c is labeled 6x minus 4, (6x – 4)

angle d is labeled 2x plus 16, (2x + 16)

what equation can be used to solve for angle b?

we know that the sum of the opposite angles of a simple quadrilateral inscribed in a circle is 180 degrees.

angle b is opposite angle d

therefore, angle b + angle d = 180

(x) + (2x + 16) = 180 

same as (2x + 16) + (x) = 180
