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

posledela

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  0

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is defined everywhere except at x=-6. The limit value is the function value at that point.

  f(6) = (6^2 -36)/(6 +6) = 0/12 = 0

The limit of the function is 0 as x → 6.

An artist wants to make alabaster pyramids using a block of alabaster with a volume of 576 cubic inches. She plans to make each
LenaWriter [7]
Pyramid
volume=base area times height times 1/3
or
length times widht times height times 1/3
base area=3
3 times height iems 1/3
height=4
3 times 3 times 1/3=4 times 1/3 times 3=4 times 1
each pyramide=4 in volume
so
x pyramids =alabaster volume
divide by pyramids
x=alabaster/pyrimds
alabaster=576
pyramids=4
divide
576/4=144
the artis can make 144 pyramids
