david study table is 20 inches long. if the diagonal measures 25 inches, find the width of david study table

15

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use Pythagorean theorem or if you draw it out and label the given information you may recognize that the triangle created is a 3 - 4 - 5 triangle.

= +             = +

625 = 400 +        

225 =                     Square root both sides

15 = x

A special right triangle has a leg that measures 3, another leg that measures 4. and a hypotenuse that measures 5.

The given triangle in this problem has a leg that measures 20 and a hypotenuse that measures 25. If you divide each measure by 5, you will have a leg that is 4, and a hypotenuse that is 5. That means the last leg must be 15.

Why? Because 3 x 5 = 15. or 15/5 = 3

This comes up very often when working with triangles.

there has been genes found in the x chromosome of males that have been linked to [homo/hetero]sexuality. in addition to the reign of the x chromosome, a section of chromosome 8 has also been link to, "alot of ppl are so " these facts were proven true after a 2014 study of a gay male and his strait brother. according to newscientist.com,"chromosome 14 and is mainly active in the thyroid, but also the brain. called tshr, it makes a type of receptor protein that recognises and binds to a hormone that stimulates the thyroid. in this way, the gene plays an important role in controlling thyroid function. the fact that tshr seems to be involved in sexual orientation fits with evidence that thyroid function seems to be linked to sexuality."

in conclusion, "ppl are so gay" due to their genetics.
