Determine whether sqrt(49/100) is rational or irrational.
\n" ); document.write( "It's rational; it is 7/10.
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Determine whether -(16)^1/4 is rational or irrational. That is minus the 4th root of 16
\n" ); document.write( "= -4
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "Find the altitude of an isosceles triangle with sides of 13 inches and a base of 10 inches.
\n" ); document.write( "Draw the picture. The altitude forms two rt. triangles.
\n" ); document.write( "Use Pythagoras: altitude^2=13^2-5^2
\n" ); document.write( "altitude = sqrt 144 = 12 inches
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( "A right triangle has one side of 45 feet and the hypothenus is 51 feet. What is the length of the other side?
\n" ); document.write( "(other side)^2=51^2-45^2=576
\n" ); document.write( "other side = 24 feet.
