Which set of numbers could represent the lengths of the sides of a right triangle?

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

The first set: 8, 15, and 17.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Pair: 8, 15, 17</h3>

By the pythagorean theorem, a triangle is a right triangle if and only if

$\text{longest side}^2 = \text{first shorter side}^2 + \text{second shorter side}^2$ .

In this case,

$\text{longest side}^2 = 17^2 = 289$ .

$\begin{aligned}&\text{first shortest side}^2 + \text{second shortest side}^2 \\ &= 8^2 + 15^2\\ &=64 + 225 = 289 \end{aligned}$ .

In other words, indeed $\text{hypotenuse}^2 = \text{first leg}^2 + \text{second leg}^2$ . Hence, 8, 15, 17 does form a right triangle.

Similarly, check the other pairs. Keep in mind that the square of the longest side should be equal to the sum of the square of the two

<h3>Pair: 10, 15, 20</h3>

Factor out the common factor $2$ to simplify the calculations.

$\text{longest side}^2 = 20^2 = 400$

$\begin{aligned}&\text{first shortest side}^2 + \text{second shortest side}^2 \\ &= 10^2 + 15^2\\ &=100 + 225 = 325 \end{aligned}$ .

$\text{longest side}^2 \ne \text{first shorter side}^2 + \text{second shorter side}^2$ .

Hence, by the pythagorean theorem, these three sides don't form a right triangle.

<h3>Pair: 12, 18, 22</h3>

$\text{longest side}^2 = (2\times 11)^2 = 2^2 \times 121$ .

$\begin{aligned}&\text{first shortest side}^2 + \text{second shortest side}^2 \\ &= (2 \times 6)^2 + (2 \times 9)^2\\ &=2^2 \times(36 + 81) = 2^2 \times 117 \end{aligned}$ .

$\text{longest side}^2 \ne \text{first shorter side}^2 + \text{second shorter side}^2$ .

Hence, by the pythagorean theorem, these three sides don't form a right triangle.

<h3>Pair: 7, 9, 11</h3>

$\text{longest side}^2 = 11^2 = 121$ .

<h3> $\begin{aligned}&\text{first shortest side}^2 + \text{second shortest side}^2 \\ &= 7^2 + 9^2\\ &=49+ 81 = 130 \end{aligned}$ .</h3>

$\text{longest side}^2 \ne \text{first shorter side}^2 + \text{second shorter side}^2$ .

Hence, by the pythagorean theorem, these three sides don't form a right triangle.

Find the inverse function? I need help.

Tatiana [17]

Super easy. Take the function, and replace X with Y and Y with X. For example, if Y=12/x, then the inverse would be X=12/Y. Now solve for Y, so XY=12, the Y=12/x.

Given triangle PRS is congruent to triangle CFH, find the values of x, y, and z.

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

x = 23

y = 7

z = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Since ∆PRS ≅ ∆CFH, therefore,

m<R = m<F

13y - 1 = 90° (substitution)

Add 1 to both sides

13y - 1 + 1 = 90 + 1

13y = 91

Divide both sides by 13

13y/13 = 91/13

y = 7

Since ∆PRS ≅ ∆CFH, therefore,

PS = CH

2x - 7 = 39 (substitution)

Add 7 to both sides

2x - 7 + 7 = 39 + 7

2x = 46

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2 = 46/2

x = 23

Since ∆PRS ≅ ∆CFH, therefore,

m<S = m<H

Find m<S

m<S = 180 - (m<P + m<R) (sum of ∆)

m<S = 180 - (28 + (13y - 1)) (substitution)

Plug in the value of y

m<S = 180 - (28 + (13)(7) - 1))

m<S = 180 - (28 + 91 - 1)

m<S = 180 - 118

m<S = 62°

Therefore, since m<S = m<H,

62° = 6z - 4 (substitution)

Add 4 to both sides

62 + 4 = 6z - 4 + 4

66 = 6z

Divide both sides by 6

66/6 = 6z/6

11 = z
