Short leg = 18 Long leg= 24 Hypotenuse= 30
My calculations were simple trial and error. I started with a trial of 10 for the short leg to begin with, averaging and estimating the appropriate proportions based off 6 additional increments. Sorry I don't have an algebraic method for you. Hope this has helped somewhat :)
The length of the diagonal of the square is the square root of 32 which equals approximately 5.6569.
The length from the corner to the center of the square is half of the diagonal which is 2.8284. I hope this helps!
Most textbooks interpret standard form of a quadratic function to be as follows:
f(x) =

In the function f(x) =

, notice we do not have a value for "c". Just place a "0" in for the c and you have standard form.
the criteria for standard form:
1. All like terms are combined
2. Degree must drop from left to right
3. The leading coefficient cannot be equal to zero.
First, it would help to simplify each side more:
Left side: 36 + 3(4x - 9) = 36 + 12x - 27 = 12x + 9
Right side: c(2x + 1) + 25 = 2cx + c + 25
Write the simplified equation:
12x + 9 = 2cx + c + 25
Usually when there is no solution, the coefficients of the variable on both sides are the same, so we can make the coefficient if x on the right side into 12:
2cx >>> 12x
Then, c must equal 6 to make this true.
The answer is choice (C).
