Solutions
To solve this problem we have to use the Pythagorean theorem. You can only use the Pythagorean theorem in Right Triangles. The longest side of the triangle is called the "hypotenuse". C² is the longest side so it is the hypotenuse . To calculate c² we have to do α² + β² = c².
Given
One leg of a right triangular piece of land has a length of 24 yards. They hypotenuse has a length of 74 yards. The other leg has a length of 10x yards.
First leg (24 yards) would be α
Second leg would be β
Hypotenuse (74 yards) would be c
Now we have points α β c.
a² (24) + β² ( x ) = c² (74)
Calculations
c² = α² + β²
74² = 24²+ β²
<span>5476 = 576 + </span>β²
5476 - 576 = β²
<span> </span>
<span>4900 = </span>β²
→√4900
<span> </span>
β<span> = 70 yards
</span>
<span>70 = 10x
</span>
<span>x = 70</span>÷<span>10 = 7 yards
</span>
The second leg = 7 yards
Answer:
14.52 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that the height of the rocket, y in feet, is related to the time after launch, x in seconds, by the given equation
Answer:
The answer is 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: $26.95 - $8.95 (which equals $18.00)
Step 2: 18 divided by 1.50 (which equals 12)
Divide the perimeter by 3 to get 8 then use the equation for the area of a triangle (a= BH1/2) and your answer is 32
