The hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle is 14 sqrt 2. How long is each leg of the triangle?

1 answer:

6 0

Each leg is 14 because the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle is the length of either of its legs times the square root of 2. So each leg is 14 because both legs are equal in an isosceles triangle
Hope this helps!

Factorize the quadratic.

$2x^2 + 5x + 3 = (2x + 3) (x + 1)$

We have $|ab| = |a||b|$ , so

$|2x^2 + 5x + 3| = |2x + 3| |x + 1| > 0$

Now, both $|2x+3|\ge0$ and $|x+1|\ge0$ (since the absolute value of any number cannot be negative), so we just need to worry about when the left side is exactly zero. This happens for
