Answer:

\sf D) \sqrt{77} \: ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

→ Perpendicular (x) = ?

→ Hypotenuse (h) = 9 feet

→ Base (b) = 2 feet

Now by using the Phythagoras theorem,

→ (Hypotenuse)² = (Perpendicular)² + (Base)²

→ (h)² = (x)² + (b)²

→ (9)² = (x)² + (2)²

→ 81 = (x)² + 4

→ (x)² = 81 - 4

→ (x)² = 77

→ [ x = √(77) ]

Thus, length of remaining side is √(77) ft.

  • Hypotenuse=H=9ft
  • Base=B=2ft

Apply Pythagorean theorem

  • P²=H²-B²
  • P²=9²-2²
  • P²=81-4
  • P²=77
  • P=√77

Option D

40 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST
ladessa [460]

Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

As x goes from 1 to 2, y increases by 4 from 4 to 8

As x goes from 2 to 3, y increases by 4 from 8 to 12

We increase by 4 each time

The formula for an arithmetic sequence is

an = a1+d(n-1)

where a1 is the first term which is 4

d is the common difference or the number we add each time which is 4

n is the term we are looking for which is 30

a30 = 4 +4 (30-1)

a30 = 4+4(29)

       = 4+116

      = 120
