By the Pythagoras theorem, in a right triangle with the sides being a and b,

 a² + b² = Hypotenuse²

Hypotenuse² = 4² + 4²

Hypotenuse² = 16 + 16 = 2*16

Hypotenuse = √2 * √16

Thus, hypotenuse = 4√2

You would use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for the hypotenuse in a right triangle. 
a^2 + b^2 = <span>c^<span>2
</span></span>c being the hypotenuse and a and b being the two legs
The square of 4 is 16, so
16+16=c^2
32=c^2
Now you have to find the square root of 32 to solve for the hypotenuse
The square root of 32 in radical form is equal to 4√2

Your answer is 4√2

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

47 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alex, Bruno, and Charles each add the lengths of two sides of the same triangle correctly.

They get  27 cm, 35 cm, and 32 cm, respectively. Find the perimeter of the triangle, in cm

find:

Find the perimeter of the triangle, in cm. What is the most efficient strategy you can find to solve this problem?

<u>solution:</u>

27, 35, and 32 are each the sum of a different pair of sides of the triangle

Then 27 + 35 + 32 is the sum of all three sides, each counted twice.

Thus, 27 + 35 + 32 = 94 is twice  the perimeter

therefore,

the perimeter of the triangle is 94/2 = 47 cm.

Can somebody helppp ??
mario62 [17]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Since F is the midpoint of EG, EF and FG are equal. We know that FG is 4 units, so EF must be 4 units. We also know that FH and EF make EH, so we substitute the values that we have.

FH + EF = EH

6 + 4 = EH

EH = 10

So, we’re looking for the amount of money Tom needs to spend to get his free meal.
X + 30.25 >
X > 9.75

X is the additional amount that Tom needs to spend. You subtract 30.25 on both sides in order to solve for x.

So, your answer would be at least $19.75
