Because the triangle ABC is isosceles, the leg of the triangle has the same length. For example, the length of one leg is a, then the other leg is a too.

Input the numbers to pythagorean formula
a² + b² = c²
a² + a² = 8²
2a² = 64
a² = 64/2
a² = 32
a = √32
a = √16 × √2
a = 4√2

The length of each leg is 4√2 inches

Which equation has the same soultions as x^2+6×-7=0
blagie [28]
x^2+6x-7=0 \\   a=1 \\ b= 6 \\ c=-7 \\ \\  \boxed{\boxed{\Delta=b^2-4ac}} \\ \\ \Delta=6^2-4*1*(-7) \\ \Delta=36-(-28) \\ \Delta=64 \\ \Delta\ \textgreater \ 0 \Rightarrow \text{we have 2 solutions :} X_1 \ and X_2 \\ \\ \boxed{X_1= \frac{-b- \sqrt{\Delta} }{2a} } \Rightarrow X_1= \frac{-6-8}{2}=-7 \\ \\ \boxed{X_2= \frac{-b+ \sqrt{\Delta} }{2a} } \Rightarrow X_2= \frac{-6+8}{2} =1

Kendra flips a fair coin two times. What is the probability that she will flip tails both times?
wolverine [178]

Answer: 1/4 or 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

The chance of flipping tails is 1/2, so you multiply 1/2*1/2 (for the 2 flips) to get 1/4 (1/2^2=1/4).
