Find the value of x in the triangle shown below.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sindrei [870]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 +b^2 = c^2  where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

12^2 +x^2 = 13^2

144 +x^2 = 169

Subtract 144 from each side

144-144 +x^2 = 169-144

x^2 =25

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(25)

x = 5

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have to exponents to the same base, and we are dividing them, we can subtract the exponents

a^b ÷ a^c = a^ (b-c)

6^7 ÷ 6^5 = 6^(7-5)

                 = 6^(2)

Consider the following statement: The square of a prime number is not prime. (a) Write this as an if-then statement, using caref
Hitman42 [59]

The square of a prime number is not prime.

a) let x ∈ R, If x  ∈ {prime numbers}, then x^{2}∉{prime numbers}

there says that if x is a real and x is in the set of the prime numbers, then the square of x isn't in the set of prime numbers.

b) Prove or disprove the statement.

ok, if x is a prime number, then x only can be divided by himself. Now is easy to see that x^{2} = x*x can be divided by himself and x, then x*x is not a prime number, because can be divided by another number different than himself
