What can the converse of the Pythagorean Theorem tell us about our surroundings? Choose a corner in any room. Choose a spot on e

ach wall that makes the corner. The spots chosen need to be at the same height. Measure the distance from each spot to the corner. Then measure the distance between the spots. Describe the corner, spots and tools you used to obtain the measurements. Do the measurements satisfy a2 + b2 = c2? What does that tell you about the corner of the room?

It will tell you if the wall meet at a perfect right angle.

In a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the legs is equal to the square of the hypotenuse. This can be used to test any triangle.

Find the ordered pairs for the x- and y-intercepts of the equation 5x − 6y = 30 and select the appropriate option below.
Amiraneli [1.4K]
5x - 6y = 30
6y = 5x - 30
Y = 5/6x - 5
y intercept = -5
Therefore (0, -5)

0 = 5/6x - 5
5/6x = 5
x = 6
x intercept = 6
therefore (6,0)

answer : first one 
x intercept =

Whats the equation for this​
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

x^2 + y^2 + 4x + 4y  = -119/16

Step-by-step explanation:

The axes x and y are calibrated in 0.25

If the circle is carefully considered, the radius r of the circle is:

r = -1.25 - (-2)

r = 0.75 units

The equation of a circle is given by:

(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2

The center of the circle (a, b) = (-2, -2)

Substituting  (a, b) = (-2, -2) and r = 0.75 into the given equation:

(x - (-2))^2 + (y - (-2))^2 = (3/4)^2\\\\(x + 2)^2 + (y + 2)^2 = (3/4)^2\\\\x^2 + 4x + 4 + y^2 + 4y + 4 = 9/16\\\\x^2 + y^2 + 4x + 4y + 8 = 9/16\\\\16x^2 + 16y^2 + 64x + 64y + 128 = 9\\\\16x^2 + 16y^2 + 64x + 64y  = -119\\\\x^2 + y^2 + 4x + 4y  = -119/16\\

Jordana wrote the equation for a linear relationship as y = -8x-4. For what value of x is y equal to -16
lapo4ka [179]
So our two equations are y=-8x-4 and y=-16, and since in both equations, something equals the same y, those two are the same. So we can combine the two into -16=-8x-4. In the question, they are asking to solve for x. So to do that, you need to isolate your variable. Now for solving algebraic equations, you use reverse PEMDAS (SADMEP), meaning you add 4 to both sides to clear the -4 one the rights side to get -12=-8x. Then you divide both sides by -8 to get 12/8, which simplifies to 3/2.

8. Find the congruence transformation that maps ∆ABC to ∆A’B’C’. Explain your reasoning
puteri [66]
The transformation is a reflection on the y-axis. 

If we take the y-axis as the mirror line as shown in the diagram below, we can see that the distance of vertices A, B, and C to the mirror line are equals to the distance of vertices A', B' and C' to the mirror line.
