Solutions
To solve this problem we have to use the Pythagorean theorem. You can only use the Pythagorean theorem in Right Triangles. The longest side of the triangle is called the "hypotenuse". C² is the longest side so it is the hypotenuse . To calculate c² we have to do α² + β² = c².
Given
One leg of a right triangular piece of land has a length of 24 yards. They hypotenuse has a length of 74 yards. The other leg has a length of 10x yards.
First leg (24 yards) would be α
Second leg would be β
Hypotenuse (74 yards) would be c
Now we have points α β c.
a² (24) + β² ( x ) = c² (74)
Calculations
c² = α² + β²
74² = 24²+ β²
<span>5476 = 576 + </span>β²
5476 - 576 = β²
<span> </span>
<span>4900 = </span>β²
→√4900
<span> </span>
β<span> = 70 yards
</span>
<span>70 = 10x
</span>
<span>x = 70</span>÷<span>10 = 7 yards
</span>
The second leg = 7 yards
Answer:
147.67 and 142.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Cents are only two digits after the decimal, aka hundredths. So, you have to round each number to the hundredth.
Answer:
x=80
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, you must find the length of the side to add with 36 to equal 100. This would give you 64. So once you do that, you can do pythagorean theorem to find the length of x. This would give you 64^2 + 48^2 = x^2. Once you have this equation, you square your terms to get; 4,096 + 2,304 = x^2. After you add them you will now have 6,400 = x^2. Once you have this, you will need to do the square root of both sides of the equation; sqrt(6400) = x. This gives you x = 80.
Hope this helps!
