<h2>The Pythagorean Theorem</h2>

The Pythagorean Theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2

  • <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are the two legs in a right triangle
  • <em>c</em> is the hypotenuse (the longest side of a right triangle; opposite the 90° angle
  • <em>*keep in mind that this theorem applies only to right triangles</em>

<h2>Solving the Question</h2>

We're given:

  • Legs = 9 units and 12 units
  • Hypotenuse = <em>c</em>

<em />

Plug these measurements into the Pythagorean theorem:

a^2+b^2=c^2\\9^2+12^2=c^2

⇒ Combine like terms:

81+144=c^2\\c^2=225

<h2>Answer</h2>

c^2=225

Can someone answer this question please (picture)
erik [133]

Answer:

31.5 units^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangle area (RA) = l × w

Triangle area (TA) = (bh)/2

RA = 3 × 7

RA = 21

TA = (7 × 3)/2

TA = 21/2

TA = 10.5

(Triangles are congruent as shown by the lines on each side of the triangle so I can calculate area of both of them together as I just did)

Add areas together

21 + 10.5 = 31.5
