If this pertains to the Pythagorean theorem, then the answer that you would most likely to end up with is by utilizing the equation a² + b² = c² where a and b are the legs of the triangle and c is the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse refer to the longest side of the triangle while the other two would be the legs of the triangle.
When solving for the missing length, just substitute the values given to their respective places in the equation. If a length of a leg is missing, then substitute the other leg's value to either a or b, then substitute the length of the hypotenuse to c. Then solve. Solving for the hypotenuse's length would be a lot easier than the legs.
Step-by-step explanation:
1)
3x+3
2)
10+2x
3)
8x+24
4)
8a+8b+8c
12-22 = -10 because know I'm right and it says I have to put more words so just look at the first part
To find the indicated angle, we can use one of the three main trigonometric functions: sine, cosine, or tangent.
Remember: SOH-CAH-TOA
Looking from the angle, we know the adjacent side and the hypotenuse. Therefore, we should use cosine to solve.
cos(x) = 12/36
x = cos^-1(12/36)
x = 71 degrees
Hope this helps!
