Let's address each question one by one:
1. **Third Angle in Right Triangle**:
- A right triangle always has one 90° angle.
- Given one angle is 65°, the sum of the angles in a triangle is always 180°.
- Third angle = 180° - 90° - 65° = 25°.
2. **Measure of the Exterior Angle**:
- Without a specific figure, an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two opposite interior angles. For example, if two interior angles are 30° and 60°, the exterior angle would be 30° + 60° = 90°.
3. **Angles in the figure**:
- Given the parallel lines \(S\) and \(T\) and the transversal creating corresponding angles, angles labeled 5, 7, and 6 are all 22°.
- Answer: 5, 6, 7.
4. **Sides of the Triangle**:
- According to the triangle description, if angle \(N\) is 62° and angle \(M\) is 28°, the third angle \(O\) = 180° - 62° - 28° = 90°.
- This is a right triangle, and usual Pythagorean theorem \(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\) applies where \(c\) is the hypotenuse, the side opposite the 90° angle.
5. **Right Triangle Check** with Sides 60, 75, and 45:
- Using the Pythagorean theorem: \( a^2 + b^2 = c^2 \)
- \( 60^2 + 45^2 = 3600 + 2025 = 5625 \)
- \( 75^2 = 5625 \)
- Therefore, it is a right triangle.
- Answer: Yes, because 5625 equals 5625.
6. **Right Triangle Check** with Sides 50, 40, and 32:
- Using the Pythagorean theorem: \( 32^2 + 40^2 = 1024 + 1600 = 2624 \)
- \( 50^2 = 2500 \)
- Since 2624 ≠ 2500, it is not a right triangle.
- Answer: 0.
7. **Hypotenuse Calculation** with Sides 12 and 16:
- Using the Pythagorean theorem: \( 12^2 + 16^2 = 144 + 256 = 400 \)
- \( \sqrt{400} = 20 \)
- Answer: 20.
8. **Other Leg Calculation** with Hypotenuse 16 and a Leg 12:
- Using the Pythagorean theorem: \(16^2 - 12^2 = 256 - 144 = 112\)
- Other leg length = \( \sqrt{112} \approx 10.6 \).
- Answer: 10.6.
9. **Distance to Throw the Ball**:
- Triangle with legs 30 feet and 90 feet.
- Using the Pythagorean theorem: \( 30^2 + 90^2 = 900 + 8100 = 9000 \)
- Distance to throw the ball = \( \sqrt{9000} \approx 94.9 \).
- Answer: 94.9 feet.
10. **Length Between Two Points on Graph**:
- Points: \( (3, 2) \) and \( (7, 8) \)
- Distance formula: \( \sqrt{(7-3)^2 + (8-2)^2} = \sqrt{4^2 + 6^2} = \sqrt{16 + 36} = \sqrt{52} \approx 7.21 \)
- Answer: 7.21.
11. **Slant Height of the Square Pyramid**:
- Right triangle formed with half the base edge (8 feet) and the height (15 feet).
- Using the Pythagorean theorem: \( 8^2 + 15^2 = 64 + 225 = 289 \)
- Slant height = \( \sqrt{289} = 17 \).
- Answer: 17 feet.
12. **Length of the Diagonal of the Rectangular Prism**:
- Diagonal formula: \( \sqrt{l^2 + w^2 + h^2} \)
- \( \sqrt{3^2 + 4^2 + 12^2} = \sqrt{9 + 16 + 144} = \sqrt{169} = 13 \)
- Answer: 13 cm.
13. **Height of the Great Pyramid of Giza**:
- Using the triangle with height (h), half the base (115.25 m), and the slant height (180.2 m):
- \( h^2 + 115.25^2 = 180.2^2 \)
- \( h^2 + 13279.56 = 32472.04 \)
- \( h^2 = 19192.48 \)
- \( h = \sqrt{19192.48} \approx 138.5 \)
- Answer: 138.5 meters.
14. **Length of the Diagonal for Coffee Table**:
- Using dimensions 44, 24, and 14.
- Diagonal formula: \( \sqrt{44^2 + 24^2 + 14^2} = \sqrt{1936 + 576 + 196} = \sqrt{2708} \approx 52.0 \)
- Answer: 52.0 inches.
15. **Proof of the Pythagorean Theorem** using the square image:
- The outer square's side length is \(a + b\).
- Area of outer square: \((a + b)^2\).
- The inner square’s area: \(c^2\).
- The outer square is also comprised of 4 right-angled triangles, each with area \(\frac{1}{2}ab\).
- So, \((a + b)^2 = c^2 + 4 \times \frac{1}{2}ab\).
- Simplifying: \(a^2 + 2ab + b^2 = c^2 + 2ab\).
- Finally: \(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\).
- This proves the Pythagorean Theorem.

A triangle has the vertices labeled upper M upper N upper O. Upper N upper O is labeled m, upper M upper N is labeled o, and upper O upper M is labeled n. Angle upper N measures 62 degrees and angle upper M measures 28 degrees.
What is the relationship of the sides in this triangle based on the Pythagorean Theorem?
(1 point)
m^2 + n^2 =
The problem you provided describes a triangle with the vertices labeled \( M, N, \) and \( O \) where:
- \( \angle N = 62^\circ \)
- \( \angle M = 28^\circ \)
- Using the fact that the sum of the angles in any triangle is 180°:
\[
\angle O = 180^\circ - 62^\circ - 28^\circ = 90^\circ
\]
Given that \(\angle O\) is \( 90^\circ \), this is a right triangle with:
- \(NO = m\)
- \(MN = o\)
- \(OM = n\)
Thus, by the Pythagorean Theorem:
\[
\text{In a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse.}
\]
Here, since \(\angle O\) is the right angle:
- \(m\) and \(n\) are the legs of the right triangle
- \(o\) is the hypotenuse
The Pythagorean Theorem relationship for this triangle is:
\[
m^2 + n^2 = o^2
\]
So, based on the Pythagorean Theorem:
\[
m^2 + n^2 = o^2
\]
- \( \angle N = 62^\circ \)
- \( \angle M = 28^\circ \)
- Using the fact that the sum of the angles in any triangle is 180°:
\[
\angle O = 180^\circ - 62^\circ - 28^\circ = 90^\circ
\]
Given that \(\angle O\) is \( 90^\circ \), this is a right triangle with:
- \(NO = m\)
- \(MN = o\)
- \(OM = n\)
Thus, by the Pythagorean Theorem:
\[
\text{In a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse.}
\]
Here, since \(\angle O\) is the right angle:
- \(m\) and \(n\) are the legs of the right triangle
- \(o\) is the hypotenuse
The Pythagorean Theorem relationship for this triangle is:
\[
m^2 + n^2 = o^2
\]
So, based on the Pythagorean Theorem:
\[
m^2 + n^2 = o^2
\]
What is the measure of the exterior angle x ? (1 point)
when the inner angles is 37 and 42
when the inner angles is 37 and 42
Given that the interior angles of the triangle are 37° and 42°, you need to find the measure of the exterior angle \( x \) adjacent to the angle formed by these two interior angles.
First, you can find the third interior angle of the triangle:
\[
\text{Third interior angle} = 180^\circ - 37^\circ - 42^\circ = 101^\circ
\]
The exterior angle \( x \) is formed by extending one side of the triangle and is equal to the sum of the two non-adjacent interior angles:
\[
x = 37^\circ + 42^\circ = 79^\circ
\]
So, the measure of the exterior angle \( x \) is:
\[
x = 79^\circ
\]
First, you can find the third interior angle of the triangle:
\[
\text{Third interior angle} = 180^\circ - 37^\circ - 42^\circ = 101^\circ
\]
The exterior angle \( x \) is formed by extending one side of the triangle and is equal to the sum of the two non-adjacent interior angles:
\[
x = 37^\circ + 42^\circ = 79^\circ
\]
So, the measure of the exterior angle \( x \) is:
\[
x = 79^\circ
\]
