The floor of a rectangular living room is 18 feet by 24 feet. What is the distance between opposite corners of the living room?
1 answer:
Answer:
The distance between opposite corners of the living room is 30ft
Step-by-step explanation:
This can be thought of as a right triangle and we want to know its hypotenuse
To calculate one side of a right triangle from the other 2 sides we have to use Pythagoras
h = hypotenuse
a = leg 1 = 18ft
b = leg 2 = 24ft
h² = a² + b²
we replace the known values
h² = (18ft)² + (24ft)²
h² = 324ft² + 576ft²
h² = 900ft²
h = √(900ft²)
h = 30ft
The hypotenuse is 30ft

3^x+1=3²(5x)
x+1 =2(5x)
solve for x
x=1/9
Exact form: x= 1/9
Decimal form x=0.1

(4x-6)+(8x+18)=180(adjacent angles are supplementary)
4x-6+8x+18=180
4x+8x-6+18=180
12x+12=180
12x=180-12
12x=168
x168/12
x=14
8x+18=y+3 (corresponding angles are equal)
8×14+18=y+3
130=y+3
-y=3-130
-y=-127
y=127
x=14, y=127
