Answer:

The altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle forms two triangles that are similar to each other and to the original triangle

The Leg Rule (or Leg geometric mean theorem) relates the length of each leg of a right triangle with the segments projected by them on the hypotenuse.

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle is the mean proportional between the segments into which it divides the hypotenuse. Notice the triangle used with this rule. The leg of a right triangle is the mean proportional between the hypotenuse and the projection of the leg on the hypotenuse.

Oliver climbed 222 meters of a steep mountain reach the summit. He then rappelled down the other side of the mountain to return

nikdorinn [45]

B -222

Because he fell/descended 222 meters. And falling or going down produces a negative integer. Also, if you were actually doing the math to try to find where Oliver is currently located, you wouldn't add 222, or 0, or subtract -444. You would subtract 222.

In addition, be aware that the question is asking you an integer to represent a situation, not the answer of where Oliver is.
