Dimensions of rectangle = 12 + x and 14 + x

(12 + x) (14 + x) = 288

 x^2 + 26x + 168 = 288

 x^2 + 26x - 120 = 0


(x + 30) (x - 4) = 0

x=-30, x =4

 since 4 is positive

 the dimensions increased by 4 feet

check the answer

12+4 = 16

14 +4 = 18

18*16 =288

Find the value of x then tell whether the side lengths form a Pythagorean triple 6 , 10 , x
masya89 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem (

a

2

+

b

2

=

c

2

)

Lets label the right triangle such that:

a

=

12

b

=

16

c

=

x

Thus,

12

2

+

16

2

=

x

2

144

+

256

=

x

2

400

=

x

2

√

400

=

x

20

=

x

So our missing side,

c

is

20

We can now say that the sides of our triangle are

12

,

16

,

20

I've included a link that lists a couple of Pythagorean triples (a couple because they are infinitely many).

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

5.25 is the lenght of the arc AB.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, since we are told the answer should be expressed in radians, we need to convert the arc angle into radians, we do that by multiplying the angle by π and dividing by 180.

60° * π/180 = 1.05rad

Now, there is a simple formula to calculate the arc lenght, A = Ф*r, where:

A = arc lenght

Ф = arc angle (60°=1.05rad)

r = radius (5cm)

A = 1.05*5cm

A = 5.25cm
