Answer:

C) 3 cm , 4 cm , 5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Using process of elimination and Pythagora's Theorem, find which of the smaller sides, when their squares are found equal to the largest number squared.

A, B, & D are wrong because:

A: 4 + 4 ≠ 16

B: 9 + 25 ≠ 100

D: 16 + 64 ≠ 225

BUT CON THE OTHER HAND 9 + 16 = 25

The height of a triangle is 4 feet more than 3 times the base. If the area is 112 ft find the base and height of the triangle

Finger [1]

Answer:

$base = 8 ft\\height =28 ft\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

let base be x ft. then the height is 3x+4

$Area=\frac{1}{2} \times x \times (3x+4)=112\\3x^{2} +4x=224\\3x^{2} +4x-224=0\\x=8, x=-9.33 (no sol. as length can not be negative)\\ x=8\\base = 8 ft\\height =3(8)+4=28 ft\\$
