This is just good 'ol Pythagorean Theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

The diagonal will be c because c is always across from the right angle of a right triangle.

3.6^2 + 2.4^2 = c^2
12.96 + 5.76 = c^2
18.72 = c^2

Now take the square root of 18.72 to find c. You get 4.32666...

Explain the purposes of inductive and deductive reasoning in mathematics. Be sure to define both inductive reasoning and deducti

uysha [10]

When it comes to deductive reasoning, it is used to reach a logical solution. You start out with the general statement, or hypothesis, and examine all the possibilities so you can reach the final conclusion.
Inductive reasoning is completely opposite - you focus on specific observations, and then make broad generalizations.

Answer:

Exercise 1: The length of the unknown leg is 4 inches.

Exercise 3: The following straws can be used to construct the triangle: b) $3\,in$ , c) $4.5\,in$ , d) $6.5\,in$ , e) $10\,in$ , f) $13.5\,in$

Exercise 4: Possible options of this exercise: 1) (2, 4, 5), 2) (4, 5, 6), 3) (5, 6, 10), 4) (1, 2, 11), 5) (1, 4, 11), 6) (1, 10, 11)

Step-by-step explanation:

Exercise 1:

Let suppose that triangle represented in the figure is a right triangle, the length of the missing leg is determined by Pythagorean Theorem:

$y = \sqrt{l^{2}-x^{2}}$ (1)

Where:

$l$ - Hypotenuse, in inches.

$x$ - Known leg, in inches.

$y$ - Unknown leg, in inches.

If we know that $l = 11\,in$ and $x = 10\,in$ , then the length of the unknown leg is:

$y = \sqrt{21}$

Since 4 is the least whole number closest to $\sqrt{21}$ , then we conclude that the length of the unknown leg is 4 inches.

Exercise 3:

The range of possible lengths for the missing side of the triangle is represented by the following simultaneous inequality:

$x + y > l > x-y$ (2)

Where:

$x$ - Greater side, in inches.

$y$ - Lesser side, in inches.

$l$ - Missing side, in inches.

If we know that $x = 8\,in$ and $y = 6\,in$ , then we have the following range of missing sides:

$14\,in > l > 2\,in$

The following straws can be used to construct the triangle: b) $3\,in$ , c) $4.5\,in$ , d) $6.5\,in$ , e) $10\,in$ , f) $13.5\,in$

Exercise 4:

Let check each pair to determine possible constructions by means of the inequality used in Exercise 3:

(i) $x = 4\,in, y = 2\,in$

$6\,in>l>2\,in$

Possible choices: 5 inches.

(ii) $x = 5\,in, y = 2\,in$

$7\,in > l > 3\,in$

Possible choices: 4 inches, 6 inches.

(iii) $x = 6\,in, y = 2\,in$

$8\,in > l > 4\,in$

Possible choices: 5 inches, 6 inches.

(iv) $x = 10\,in, y = 2\,in$

$12\,in > l > 8\,in$

Possible choices: None.

(v) $x = 5\,in, y = 4\,in$

$9\,in > l > 1\,in$

Possible choices: 2 inches, 6 inches.

(vi) $x = 6\,in, y = 4\,in$

$10\,in > l > 2\,in$

Possible choices: 5 inches.

(vii) $x = 10\,in, y = 4\,in$

$14\,in > l > 6\,in$

Possible choices: None.

(viii) $x = 6\,in, y = 5\,in$

$11\,in > l > 1\,in$

Possible choices: 2 inches, 4 inches, 10 inches.

(ix) $x = 10\,in, y = 5\,in$

$15\,in > l > 5\,in$

Possible choices: 6 inches.

(x) $x = 10\,in, y = 6\,in$

$16\,in > l > 4\,in$

Possible choices: 5 inches.

Possible options of this exercise: 1) (2, 4, 5), 2) (4, 5, 6), 3) (5, 6, 10), 4) (1, 2, 11), 5) (1, 4, 11), 6) (1, 10, 11)
