Answer:

5² + 12² = 13²

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean theorem defines the relationship between the 3 sides of a right angled triangle. These are the opposite side, hypotenuse side and the adjacent side.

The theorem states that the sum of the squares of the lengths of the opposite side and the adjacent side is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse such that mathematically,

a² + b² = c²

where a and b are the lengths of the opposite and adjacent side and c is the length of the hypotenuse

Considering the numbers 5, 12 and 13,

5² + 12² = 25 + 144

= 169

= 13²

Hence

5² + 12² = 13²

The numbers 5, 12 and 13 can be used to correctly identify the sides of a right triangle, and this can be proven by using the Pythagorean Theorem.  

5² + 12² = 13²
25 + 144 = 169
169 = 169

5 and 12 are the legs, and 13 is the hypotenuse. Hopefully this is what the question is asking. :)

Find the equation of the line that passes through (-1, 4) and is perpendicular to the
statuscvo [17]
For perpendicular lines, m2 = -1/m1; where m1 is the slope of line 1 and m2 is the slope of line 2.
m1 = (-4 - 2)/(4 - 2) = -6/2 = -3
m2 = -1/-3 = 1/3
Equation of the required line is given by: y - 4 = 1/3 (x - (-1))
y - 4 = 1/3 x + 1/3
y = 1/3 x + 1/3 + 4
y = 1/3 x + 13/3

Find the coordinates of triangle ABC A(2,1) B(3,0) C(1,-2) after a dilation with a scale factor of 3
Bad White [126]

Answer:

Remember the key word”factor” which means to multiply. Multiple all those numbers by 3!

Step-by-step explanation:I’m going to do 2 of them and you can do the last one (2,1)x3= the dilation (6,3). (3,0)x 3 gives the dilation (9,0). (1,-2)x3 gives the dilation of (3,-6). See it’s very easy.

Please help me with this geometry question, Im pretty sure you need to use SAS congruence rule
Ierofanga [76]

<em>Congruent triangles</em> are two or more triangles with the same length of <u>sides</u> and measure of internal <u>angles</u>. Thus the <em>required</em> proof is as shown below:

From the given diagram, it can be <u>observed</u> that:

AB = AC (<em>similar</em> property of two lines)

AC = AE (<u>similar </u>property of two lines)

Also,

m<A is a <u>common</u> angle to ΔABC and ΔADE

So that it can be <em>concluded </em>that;

ΔABC ≅ ΔADE (Side-Angle-Side property)

Thus since ΔABC ≅ ΔADE are <u>congruent</u>, then;

BC = DE (<u>corresponding</u> sides of <em>congruent</em> triangles)
