A triangle has squares on its three sides as shown below. What is the value of x? Three squares having side lengths 3 cm, x cm,
and 4 cm joining to form right triangle at the centre 3 centimeters 4 centimeters 5 centimeters 7 centimeters
2 answers:
Answer:
The value of x is 5 centimeters.
Therefore, option 3 is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
A triangle has three sides 3,x and 4 cms
Since the triangle is right angle triangle so, it will follow the Pythagoras theorem:
(1)
We have been given three sides x,3 and 4
On substituting the values in (1) we get:
Hence, the value of x is 5 centimeters.
Therefore, option 3 is correct.

General Idea:
If we have a quadratic function of the form f(x)=ax^{2} +bx+c , then the function will attain its maximum value only if a < 0 & its maximum value will be at x=-\frac{b}{2a} .
Applying the concept:
The height h is modeled by h = −16t^2 + vt + c, where v is the initial velocity, and c is the beginning height of the firecracker above the ground. The firecracker is placed on the roof of a building of height 15 feet and is fired at an initial velocity of 100 feet per second. Substituting 15 for c and 100 for v, we get the function as .
Comparing the function f(x)=ax^{2} +bx+c with the given function , we get
,
and
.
The maximum height of the soccer ball will occur at t=\frac{-b}{2a}=\frac{-100}{2(-16)} = \frac{-100}{-32}=3.125 seconds
The maximum height is found by substituting in the function as below:
Conclusion:
<u>Yes !</u> The firecracker reaches a height of 100 feet before it bursts.
