You can use the pythagorean theorem. Make sure that you put the measurements in the right places though. Since 11 is the measure of the hypotenuse, 11 has to be c. When you plug in the information that you have, it should look like this:
8^2 + b^2 = 11^2
Square 8 and 11.
64 + b^2 = 121
Subtract 64 from 121
121 - 64 = 57
The new equation is:
b^2 = 57
Now take the square root of both sides to get b by itself.
b = about 7.5
Answer: The height of the triangle is 7.5

Divide them on a calculator
The slope of the line is -3/5x.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a)General least square regression line is ,
Where,a=intercept. b= slope
To get line just find values of a and b.
Use Excel to find values.
First enter values of variable "age" that is y in the column A that is A1to A5 and values of variable "height" in the column B, B1 to B5.
Then for value of a use functufuas ,
=INTERCEPT(A1:A5,B1:B5)
Then hit enter ,therefore a=20.4595
For b use function as. =SLOPE(A1:A5,B1:B5)
Then hit enter.therefore b=0.3738
Therefore equation of least square regression line is
Y=20.4595+(0.3738*x)
b) to predict height at age 21 years or 252 month just put value of x=252 in the above equation.
Y=20.4595+(0.3738+252)
Y=20.4595+94.1976
Y=114.6571
Conclusion: height will be 114.6571 inches when age change by 1 unit.
