Let x and x+1 represent the consecutive integers, then x is the other leg and x+1 is the hypotenuse (because the hypotenuse must be greater than its sides).

Use Pythagorean Theorem:
  a²   + b² = c²
(77)² + x² = (x+1)²
5929 + x² = x² + 2x + 1
5928        =        2x
2964        =          x

x+1 = 2965

Answer: The other leg is 2964 m and the hypotenuse is 2965 m

Which recursive formula defines this sequence for n > 1?
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

(B)a_n=a_{n-1}+3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, ...

6=3+3

9=6+3

12=9+3

If we continue in like manner, we notice that the nth term (a_n) is an addition of 3 to the previous term (a_{n-1}).

Therefore (for n>1), the recursive formula which defines the sequence is:

a_n=a_{n-1}+3

The correct option is B
