Step-by-step explanation:
let p be perpendicular, ( ^ refers to exponent )
by pythagorus theorem,
hypotenuse^2 = perpendicular^2 + base^2
- 34^2 = p^2 + 30^2
- 1156 = p^2 + 900
- p^2 = 1156 - 900
- p^2 = 256
- p = root 256
- p = 16
so we get p = perpendicular = 16 feets
Answer:
i think that's right

Right so it would be 509 sq ft
Answer:
(x, y) = (3, 5)
Step-by-step explanation:

Solving by elimination here again, there are 2 good options available. Either multiply the whole bottom equation by -1 to cancel the x, or by 2 to cancel the y. I'll do the latter:

Add from top to bottom:

Now, with the value of x, solve for y in either of the equations. I'll choose the second one here:

(x, y) = (3, 5)
