Identify and Set Up

This question is a test on the understanding of the Pythagorean theorem.

It states that the square of the length of the hypothenuse of a right angled triangle is equal to a sum of the squares of the other sides.

Our approach, given the length of the other sides, is simply to find the square of the hypothenuse which is a sum of the square of the other 2 sides.

Execute

\begin{gathered} h^2=o^2+a^2 \\ \text{ Where:} \\ h=\text{hypothenuse} \\ o=\text{Opposite side} \\ a=\text{Adjacent side} \end{gathered}

This gives us:

a.

h^2=17^2+26^2=965\operatorname{cm}^2

Area of square with length as hypotenuse = 965 sq cm

b.

h^2=7^2+15^2=274\operatorname{cm}

Area of square with length as hypotenuse = 274 sq cm

Write the equation for the inverse of y=4arccot(
garri49 [273]
I think you meant "y = 4 arccot (x)."  

This is equivalent to:

 y
---- = arccot x
 4

and so cot (y/4) = x
