Which shows a perfect square trinomial?

Mathematics

The answer is <span>c. 16x2 + 24xy + 9y2.

Since we need trinomial (three term expression) choices a and b are incorrect because they have only two terms.

So, our square trinomial is a</span>² + 2ab + b² or a² - 2ab + b²
a² + 2ab + b² = (a + b)²
a² - 2ab + b² = (a - b)²

Let's check choices c and d:
c) 16x² + 24xy + 9y²
a² = 16x²
a² = (4x)²
a = 4x

b² = 9y²
b² = (3y)²
b = 3y

a² + 2ab + b² = (4x)² + 2 * 4x * 3y + (3y)² = 16x² + 24xy + 9y²
CORRECT

d) 49x² - 70xy + 10y²
a² = 49x²
a² = (7x)²
a = 7x

b² = 10y²
b² = (y√10)²
b = y√10

a² + 2ab + b² = (7x)² + 2 * 7x * y√10 + (y√10)² = 49x² + 14xy√10 + 10y²
INCORRECT

So, c) is correct answer

A right triangle has legs of lengths 9 cm and 12 cm. calculate the length of the hypotenuse?
just olya [345]
Let the legs of the triangle be a and b, and the hypotenuse c.

Your first instinct might tell you to use the Pythagorean theorem to go about solving this because c= \sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2}}. This works, but it is slow.

The fastest way to solve this is to recognize that the right triangle is a special triangle where the ratio of the sides are 3:4:5. This means that if the legs are 9 and 12, then the hypotenuse is 15 because 3*3 is 9, 3*4 is 12, and 3*5 is 15.

Which statement is valid when a circumscribed circle of an acute triangle is
Anni [7]
<h3>There are two answers: Choice C, Choice D</h3>

Explanation:

For any acute triangle, the center of the circle is always inside the triangle.

For any right triangle, the center of the circle is the midpoint of the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is the diameter of the circle.

For any obtuse triangle, the center of the circle is outside the triangle.

----------

Let's look at the answer choices more closely

A. False. This is only true if we have a right triangle as mentioned earlier.

B. False. This describes an inscribed circle.

C. True. As stated earlier.

D. True. This is based on how the circumscribed triangle is defined. It is set up to be the circle that goes through all three vertex points of a triangle. In other words, it is the smallest circle to completely enclose the given triangle.
