A city planner is measuring the distance of one city block. Which unit of measure should she use: 1 mile, 1 meter, 1/2 inch. Explain.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

Meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Miles are to big to measure the distance of a city block, and inches are too small.

If she were to use inches, the number of the measure would be too large, and not easy to imagine and of she were to use miles, it would be a little number (like a fraction or decimal number), that wouldn't be as easy to understand. Instead, using meters, the measurements wouldn't be too little or to big, they would be between 50 or 150 meters on average, so these are numbers more usable and practical.

Please explain the connection between Pythagorean triples and right triangles. Please help and thanks

Answers

the Pythagorean triples are integer solutions to the Pythagorean theorem
a*a + b*b = c*c or x squared + y squared = z squared you can use abc and xyz interchangeably. using a right triangle, the c side would be the hypotenuse, the side opposite the right angle. The "a" side is the shorter of the two sides adjacent to the right angle.
