If it's a right angle triangle and you know its base and height then use Pythagoras' theorem to find the length of its hypotenuse.

If you have a graph on which forearm length and height are on the Y and X axis which variable should go on which axis?

Forearm length should be on the Y-axis and height should be on the X-axis. This is because height is typically considered the independent variable, which is plotted on the X-axis, while forearm length is the dependent variable, which is plotted on the Y-axis.


The length of a rectangle is three times its width If the perimeter of the rectangle is 48?

The perimeter of a rectangle is equal to 2*length + 2* width. In this case, we will say 2x + 2y = p = 48. Since the length is equal to 3 times the width, the equation now becomes p = 6*y + 2*y, or just p = 8y. Now since p =48, y must equal 6. And since the length is three times the width (y), the length is 18.


What is the area and perimeter of a rectangle?
