Answer:

$x=4\sqrt{2}\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

Theorem: In the right triangle the leg is the geometric mean of the hypotenuse and the segment of the hypotenuse adjacent to the leg.

Based on the theorem above,

$x^2=2\cdot (2+6)\\ \\x^2=4\cdot 8\\ \\x^2=32\\ \\x=\sqrt{32}\ units\\ \\x=4\sqrt{2}\ units$

A mother has two children whose ages differ by 5 years. The sum of the squares of their ages is 97. The square of the mother's

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

41 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent age of younger child.

We have been given that a mother has two children whose ages differ by 5 years. So the age of older child would be $x+5$ .

The sum of the squares of their ages is 97. We can represent this information in an equation as:

$x^2+(x+5)^2=97$

Let us solve for x.

$x^2+x^2+10x+25=97$

$2x^2+10x+25-97=0$

$2x^2+10x-72=0$

Divide both sides by 2:

$x^2+5x-36=0$

$x^2+9x-4x-36=0$

$x(x+9)-4(x+9)=0$

$(x+9)(x-4)=0$

$(x+9)=0 ; (x-4)=0$

$x=-9 ; x=4$

Since age cannot be negative, therefore, age of younger child is 4 years.

Age of older child would be $x+5\Rightarrow4+5=9$

Therefore, the age of older child would be 9 years.

We have been given that the square of the mother's age can be found by writing the squares of the children's ages one after the other as a four-digit number.

Square of 4: $4^2=16$

Square of 9: $9^2=81$ .

Square of mother's age: $1681$

To find mother's age, we need to take positive square root of 1681 as:

$\sqrt{1681}=41$

Therefore, the mother is 41 years old.

Liza needs a total of 22.23 square feet of cloth to make a bag and a towel the bag requires 5.13 square feet of cloth the height

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

5.7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cloth area recquired to make a bag and a towel is 22.23 square feet

Given the area of the cloth recquired to make the bag is 5.13 square feet.

The area of cloth recquired to make the towel is = 22.23-5.13=17.1 square feet

given the height of the towel = 3 feet

let the length of the towel be x

We know that $area = length\times height$

area=3x

$3x=17.1\\x=5.7$

therefore the length of the towel is 5.7 feet
