Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The correct option is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the expresses this statement: A quantity x is equal to the sum of the squares of a and b.

The square of a can be written as a² and the square of b can be written as b².

The sum of squares of a and b can be written as

a^2+b^2

Since the quantity x is equal to the sum of the squares of a and b, therefore

x=a^2+b^2

Therefore option D is correct.

Can someone help me #11 PLEASE SHOW YOUR WORK
damaskus [11]
Since the triangle is equilateral, QR = RS = QS.
a. MS = (1/2)74
    MS = 37
b. Half of the equilateral triangle makes a right triangle. Use Pythagorean Theorem to find QM. 
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
37^2 + b^2 = 74^2
1369 + b^2 = 5476
subtract 1369 from both sides
b^2 = 4107
take the square root if both sides
b = 64.1
QM = 64.1
