Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A triangle with side lengths a = x^2-1, b = 2x, \text{ and } c = x^2 + 1

To find : Prove that when x > 1, it is a right triangle. Use the Pythagorean theorem and the given side lengths to create an equation. Use the equation to show that this triangle follows the rule describing right triangles. Explain your steps ?

Solution :

For right triangle the Pythagorean theorem is to be satisfied.

i.e. c^2=a^2+b^2

Here, a = x^2-1, b = 2x, \text{ and } c = x^2 + 1

Substitute the values,

(x^2+1)^2=(x^2-1)^2+(2x)^2

x^4+1+2x^2=x^4+1-2x^2+4x^2

x^4+1+2x^2=x^4+1+2x^2

LHS=RHS

It is a right triangle.

Decompose the figure into regions that are closest to each
Korolek [52]

The image is decomposed as follows: H1 and H2. Where original graph is Hx.

<h3>Are the images (attached) valid decompositions of the original graph?</h3>

  • Yes, they are because, H1 and H1 are both sub-graphs of Hx; also
  • H1 ∪ H2 = Hx
  • They have no edges in common.

Hence, {H1 , H2} are valid decomposition of G.

<h3>What is a Graph Decomposition?</h3>

A decomposition of a graph Hx is a set of edge-disjoints sub graphs of H, H1, H2, ......Hn, such that UHi = Hx

See the attached for the Image Hx - Pre decomposed and the image after the graph decomposition.

What is this math problem???<br><br> g(x)=1/20x(x-100)
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

the x intercept is (0,100) and the y intercept is (0,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x)=1/20x(x-100)

g(0)=1/20(0)(0-100)

g(0)=1/20*0(0-100)

g(0)=100
