Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagoras (for right-angled triangles) :
c² = a² + b²
c being the Hypotenuse, the side opposite of the right angle. and that would be here the diagonal.
c = diagonal = 10 ft
therefore, the width of the rectangle is 10/2 = 5 ft
10² = 5² + b²
100 = 25 + b²
b² = 75
b = length = sqrt(75) = 8.660254038... ft
Answer:
it is 45
Step-by-step explanation:
677
Z - (-9) is the same as z + 9. Subtracting a negative is the same as adding.
Therefore
17 = z - (-9)
is the same as
17 = z + 9
To get 'z' all by itself, we need to subtract 9 from both sides. We subtract 9 from both sides to undo the "plus 9" occurring to the 'z' on the right side.
17 = z + 9
17-9 = z + 9=9 ... subtracting 9 from both sides
8 = z
z = 8
So the answer is z = 8
---------------------------
Check:
17 = z - (-9)
17 = 8 - (-9) ... replace z with 8
17 = 8 + 9
17 = 17
Answer checks out
