Answer:

1. 44; 2. 40, 3. 25

Step-by-step explanation:

The first one is just a 3,4,5 triangle scaled up by a factor of 11.

The second one is a 20,21,29 triangle, so the easiest way to find it would be to plug in the numbers (plugging in 58 as the hypotenuse works)

The last one is just a 5,12,13 triangle scaled up by a factor of 5.

Andy completes the square for the equation x2 + 6x - 8 = 0. Which of the following equations reveals the vertex of the parabola?

Stolb23 [73]

If the equation $x^2+6x-8$ has undergo completing the square, the answer would be:
$x^2+6x-8
$
$x^2+6x+9-8-9$
**In this example, since 6x is the middle term, what comes to my mind is the polynomial (x+3) because 2ab results into 6x. [from the special products lesson $(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2$ ]
$(x+3)^2 -17 = 0$
So if the equation is equal to y, then this equation's
$y+17=(x+3)^2$
The vertex would be on the point (-3, -17)
