Points are: A= (-2,7)B= (3,5)C= (1,0) To show that the triangle is a right triangle, show that the sum of the squares of the len

The sum of the squares of the lengths is 58

The square of length of the hypotenuse is 58

From the question, we have

AB² = (-2-3)² +(7-5)²= 25+4 =29

BC² = (3-1)²+(5-0)²=4+25=29

AC² = (-2-1)²+(7-0)² = 9+49 = 58

Here we can see that,

AB²+BC² = AC²

The sum of the squares of the lengths of two sides (the legs) equals the square length of the third side (hypotenuse).

the sum of the squares of the lengths = AB²+BC² =29+29 = 58

the square of length of the hypotenuse= 58

Pythagoras Theorem:

In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides, according to Pythagoras's Theorem. These triangle's three sides are known as the Perpendicular, Base, and Hypotenuse. Due to its position opposite the 90° angle, the hypotenuse in this case is the longest side. When the positive integer sides of a right triangle (let's say sides a, b, and c) are squared, the result is an equation known as a Pythagorean triple.

How to do compound and simple interest

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

We can compute simple interest by finding the interest rate percentage of the amount borrowed, then multiply by the number of years interest is earned. Another type of interest calculates interest on both the money initialy deposited as well as the interest money earned, and is called compound interest.

For his troops' popcorn fundraiser sale, Mike sold caramel corn for $10, buttered microwave popcorn for $8, and lightly buttered

Bad White [126]

$\bf \begin{cases}
c=\textit{caramel corn}\\
b=\textit{buttered microwave popcorn}\\
p=\textit{lightly buttered popcorn}
\end{cases}$

so... he sold 400 items, that means, whatever those quantities of c,b,p are, they add up to 400, thus

c+b+p = 400

now, the "c" sold for $10
the "b" sold for $8
and the "p" sold for $7

so, the amount of revenue on the "c" is 10 * c, or 10c
the revenue on "b" is 8*b or 8b
and the revenue on "p" is 7*p or 7p

whatever those amounts are, they ended up in $3,272
thus
10c + 8b + 7p = 3,272

now, he sold more lightly buttered, or "p", than just buttered corn or "b"
he actually sold twice as much, so whatever "b" is, "p" is twice that much
or
p = 2b

thus $\bf \begin{cases}
c+b+\boxed{p}=400\\\\
\boxed{p}=2b\qquad thus\\\\
c+b+\boxed{2b}=400\qquad or\\\\
c+3b=400\implies c=\underline{400-3b}\\
--------------\\
10c+8b+7p=3272\qquad or\\\\
10(\underline{400-3b})+8b+7(\boxed{2b})=3272
\end{cases}$

solve for "b", to see how many buttered microwave popcorn Mike sold

how many lightly buttered? well, p = 2b
how many caramel ones? well c = 400 - 3b
