Using the Pythagorean theorem, the distance between the parallel sides is: B. 3.

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

The Pythagorean theorem is given as, c² = a² + b², if in a right triangle, a and b are the lengths of the smaller legs, and c is the length of the longest side (hypotenuse).

<h3>What is a Trapezoid?</h3>

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral that has one pair of opposite sides that are parallel to each other. These parallel sides are called bases. The distance between the height of the parallel sides of a trapezoid is the height of the trapezoid.

In the image given, we would apply the Pythagorean theorem to find the distance between the parallel sides of the right trapezoid.

c = 5

a = 8 - 4 = 4

b = distance between the parallel sides

b = √(5² - 4²)

b = 3 units.

The answer is: B. 3.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (8,-4) and is parallel to the line x-4y=12?
lesantik [10]

Answer:

x - 4y =12 / -x

-4y = 12 - x // -4

y = -3  1/4 *x

a = 1/4

f(8) = -4

-4 = a*8 + b

-4 = 2 + b / -2

b = -6

so

y = 1/4 *a -6

A, b, and c are polynomials, where: a = 3x – 4 b = x 7 c = x2 2 what is a2 – (b c) in simplest form? 8x2 – 25x 7 8x2– 25x 11 10x

The expression A² – (B + C) in its simplest form is 8x² – 25x + 7

<h3>What is the polynomial?</h3>

A polynomial function is an expression constructed with one or more terms of variables with constant exponents.

Data obtained from the question

A = 3x – 4, B = x + 7, C = x² + 2, A² – (B + C) =?

The simplest form of the polynomial is given by;

(3x – 4)² – (x + 7 + x² + 2)

9x² – 12x – 12x + 16 – (x + x² + 9)

9x² – 24x + 16 – x – x² – 9

9x² – x² – 24x – x + 16  – 9

8x² – 25x + 7

Hence, the simplest form of the polynomial is A² – (B + C) = 8x² – 25x + 7.
