The Pythagorean Theorem states that for right triangles:

a^2=b^2+c^2

a= the hypotenuse

b and c equals the other two sides.

In this case we are given the hypotenuse so we can rearrange the equation to look like this b^2=a^2-c^2 (I subtracted c^2 from both sides). I know a and c so I can solve for b.

We get rid of a square by implementing a square root on both sides and get:

b=sqrt(a^2-c^2) .... b=sqrt( (sqrt(34))^2 - 3^2)

b= sqrt(25) ..... b=5

a. Today is day 1. 30 days from today is day 31.

She works on day 31, so she does work 30 days from today.

b. 45 days from today is day 46. She is off on day 46, so she will be off 45 days from today.

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rules of radicals/ exponents

• $\frac{\sqrt{a} }{\sqrt{b} }$ ⇔ $\sqrt{\frac{a}{b} }$ , hence

$\sqrt{\frac{c^2d^6}{4c^3d^-4} }$ ← simplify

= $\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}(\frac{1}{c})(d^(10)) }$

= $\frac{d^5}{2\sqrt{c} }$ → B
