Applying the Pythagorean theorem, the measure of the other leg, to the nearest tenth, is: 2.6 cm.

<h3>What is the Pythagorean Theorem?</h3>

In a right triangle, where the lengths of its two legs are a and b, and the hypotenuse length is c, the Pythagorean theorem states that: c² = a² + b².

Given the following parameters of the right triangle:

  • c = 4 cm
  • a = 3 cm
  • b = ? (other leg)

Apply the Pythagorean theorem:

b = √(4² - 3²)

b = 2.6 cm (nearest tenth)

Thus, applying the Pythagorean theorem, the measure of the other leg, to the nearest tenth, is: 2.6 cm.

Jeremy solved the equation 3+x= 11 by drawing a model. Use numbers and words to explain how Jeremy's model can be used to find t
kkurt [141]

The expression 3 + x = 11 is an equivalent equation of a model

The solution to the equation is x = 8

<h3>How to solve the equation</h3>

The equation is given as:

3 + x = 11

Subtract 3 from both sides of the equations

-3 + 3 + x = -3 + 11

Evaluate the expression on the right-hand side

-3 + 3 + x = 8

Evaluate the expression on the left-hand side

x = 8

Hence, the solution to the equation is x = 8
