The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 1m longer than twice one of the other two sides. The third side of the triangle is 15m. Fi

nd the lengths of the unknown side and the hypotenuse.
(this is within the unit of quadratic equations, so im not entirely sure how this would work)

X=8 remember length cannot be negative

Let the length of unknown side be x

So, hypotenuse = 2x + 1

By pythagorean theorem ie , a² = b² + c²

(2x + 1)² = x² + 15²

4x² + 1 + 4x = x² + 225

3x² + 4x -224

(3x +28)(x-8)

x = -9.33 , 8

Since, length can't be negative

x = 8

∴Unknown side length = 8 m

Length of hypotenuse = 2 x 8 + 1 = 17 m

Hope it helps now.

Needing help with these 2 problems
UNO [17]

Answer:

15) 3.2

17) 13.4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the missing lengths, you need to use the Pythagorean theorem:

a² + b² = c²

In this form, "c" represents the length of the hypotenuse and "a" and "b" represent the lengths of the other two sides.

You are trying to find one of the side lengths (not the hypotenuse) in 15). To find the other length, you can plug the other values into the equation and simplify to find "b".

15)    a = 4.1     c = 5.2

a² + b² = c²                                    <----- Pythagreom Theorem

(4.1)² + b² = (5.2)²                          <----- Plug values in for "a" and "c"

16.81 + b² = 27.04                         <----- Raise numbers to the power of 2

b² = 10.23                                      <----- Subtract 16.81 from both sides

b = 3.2                                           <----- Take the square root of both sides

You are trying to find the hypotenuse in 17). Since you have been given the lengths of the other sides, you can plug them into the equations and simplify to find "c".

17)   a = 4.4      b = 12.7

a² + b² = c²                                      <----- Pythagreom Theorem

(4.4)² + (12.7)² = c²                           <----- Plug values in for "a" and "b"

19.36 + 161.29 = c²                          <----- Raise numbers to the power of 2

180.65 = c²                                      <----- Add

13.4 = c                                            <----- Take the square root of both sides
