To determine the length of the hypotenuse, we need a relation that would relate the other legs and the hypotenuse of the triangle. So, we would need to use the Pythagorean theorem which is an equation that relates the hypotenuse with the other legs of a right triangle. It is to be noted that this is only usable for right triangles only. It is expressed as follows:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

where c is the hypotenuse and a, b are the other legs.

c = √(a^2 + b^2)
c = √(6^2 + 8^2)
c = √100
c = 10 m

Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse with the other legs having a length of 6 and 8 would be 10 m.

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

y=e^x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

y=e^x will go through (0,1). Since it goes through (0,4), then the function moves up 3 units. So we need to add 3 after e^x

A pirate shoots a cannonball into the air from a height of 10
Aneli [31]

We are basically given most of what we need to calculate the height of the cannonball.

We use the formula h = –16t+ vt + s to find the height requested.

Let v = 160

Let s = 10

Let t = time in seconds

Was the value of t included? We need to know t to plug into our formula.

You know everything else except for t. Go back to your notes to search for t. Afterward, plug the value of t and everything else given above into the formula and calculate to find h.
