Hi Vance :)

a=leg unknow
b=leg
c=hypotenuse

a²+b²=c²
a²=c²-b²
a²=145² - 144²
a²=21,025 - 20,736
a²=289
a=√289
a=17

unknow leg = 17 units

What is the estimate for square root of 22
tigry1 [53]
<span>16=4²
25=5² 
</span>So that means the square root of 22 is between 4 and 5.
Square 4.5 
4.5² = 20.25 
<span>4.5 < √22 < 5
So the nearest whole number would be 5.

What is the length of s?​
Serggg [28]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use trigonometry to solve this problem.

We see that the side provided is the hypotenuse and the side we are looking for is opposite to the angle provided. Thus, we will use sin since sin uses opposite/hypotenuse.

Now we solve.

sin45 = x/14

sin45 * 14 = x

x = 9.899494936611665
