It is a pronoun that is used to replace a previously mentioned noun or is used to identify a person.
<u>Given</u>:
The given triangle is a similar triangle.
The length of the hypotenuse is 18 units.
The length of the leg is a.
The length of the part of the hypotenuse is 16 units.
We need to determine the proportion used to find the value of a.
<u>Proportion to find the value of a:</u>
We shall find the proportion to determine the value of a using the geometric mean leg rule.
Applying the leg rule, we have;

Substituting the values of hypotenuse, leg and part, we get;

Thus, the proportion used to find the value of a is 
Hence, Option D is the correct answer.
Answer:
-x/x^2-1
Step-by-step explanation:
-x^2+x/x^3-x^2-x+1
x(-x+1)/(x+1)(x-1)(x-1)
-x/x^2-1
You need to use the distance formula


so the distance between points (5,-2) and (-3,8) is

which won't simplify so it stays as is
