How do you get adjacent with a given hypotenuse?
Knowing the length of the hypotenuse doesn't tell you the length of either adjacent side. You also need to know at least one other piece of information, like the other side, or an angle.
How do you know a triangle is a right triangle?
It has one right angle (90 degrees). If you don't have a protractor handy, just use the corner of any piece of paper
A piece of wire 16 m long is cut into two pieces so that one piece is three fifths as long as the other find the length of each piece?
one fifth is 3.2m. so one three-fifths piece is 9.6m and the two-fifths piece is 5.4m
A 80 inch pipe is cut into two pieces.One piece is three times the length of the other. find the lengths of two pieces.?
A 192 inch pipe is cut into two pieces. One piece is three times the length of the other. Find the length of the short piece
If A piece of timber has been cut in to two lengths in ratio of 7 to 2 original piece was 828cm how long is the larger piece?
7/9 +2/9 = 828cm.828/9 = 92cm.The larger piece = 7 x 92cm = 644cm.And the other piece = 2 x 92cm = 184cm.
What is a piece of glass that has apolished flat sides at an angle?
A bevelled piece of glass.

What is a small piece or part of something like a piece of glass?
A shard or sliver is a small piece or part of something, especially a piece of glass. But other kinds of items, it could also be a fragment.
What happens when light hits a bent piece of glass?
Some of the light is reflected off the glass at the same angle - in a manner and angle similar to that of a ball deflected off a surface at a similar angle. This is what happens when light reflects from car windows into our faces. Much of the light, however, will penetrate the glass, so that the light source is seen from the other side. Nevertheless, on contact with the glass, the light that penetrates will be refracted (bent) and travel through the glass at a different angle from that of its original contact with the glass; but once having travelled through the glass, it will leave at its original angle of contact. The amount of refraction depends on a number of factors, but especially, on the thickness of the glass and specific angle of contact involved. So, the light bends as it passes through the glass, but leaves at its original angle.
What is a piece of glass called?

What is the best example of a polished piece?

Striking experiment with straight sided glass?
A person can perform an experiment with a straight sided piece of glass to see if it has more strength when it is hit while it is horizontal or vertical. It has been proven that a piece of glass used in an automobile will have more strength when it is hit at an angle. This is why the windshield on a car is not straight up and down like a window would be.
What happens when light is shone on a thin piece of glass?
Well, quite a lot takes place when light is shone on a piece of glass. This has a lot to do with the surface of the glass (how clean it might be), and also with the structure of the glass itself. The light will tend to scatter off the glass -if the glass itself is reflective, or if there are particles on the surface which are reflective. It will also diffract through the glass, causing the light to bend. This is similar to the way that light diffracts through water, but to a MUCH smaller degree if the glass is uniform, thin, and smooth. The glass may also warm slightly, based on the intensity and angle of the light incident on the glass. There are also several other effects, but I hope that this has covered what you wanted to know.
Which is a good example of a polished piece of writing?
Jonathan Swift's "A Modest Proposal"
What is a curved piece of glass or other transparent substance that is used to refract light?
