X^2 + 400^2 = 500^2
solve for x.
x^2=25,000-16,000
x^2= 9,000
x=
x =  \sqrt{9000}
x= 94.86m

We shall use Pythagorean Theorem.

Which is

a² + b² = c²

Where

c is the hypotenuse

a is the altitude

b is the base

In the figure

c = 500 m

b = 400 m

Substituting the values

We get

a² + 400² = 500²

a² + 160000 = 250000

Subtracting 160000 from both sides we get

a² = 250000 - 160000

a² = 90000

Taking square root on both sides, we get

a = 300 m

Hence the the length of the altitude is 300 m.

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

54

Step-by-step explanation:

Tn = an²+bn

T2 = a2²+2b

2 = 4a +2b

Multiply all through by 2

4 = 8a +4b

4b = 4-8a

T4 = a4² + 4b

20 = 16a +4b

4b = 20-16a

4-8a = 20-16a

16a -8a = 20-4

8a = 16

a = 16/8 = 2

4b = 4-8a = 4-8(2) = 4-16 = -12

b = -12/4 = -3

T6 = a6² + 6b

T6 = 2(36) + 6(-3) = 72 -18 = 54

Which mathematical term cannot be defined for all cases in a system of geometry?
Fynjy0 [20]

The mathematical terms that cannot be defined for all cases in a system of geometry are the parallel lines and midpoint of a line segment. A line is an infinite series of points in a row and it does not occupy any space. They are also called one dimensional since the direction is in one dimension. A point has a location but no specific size. It can describe a location but you can never determine its actual size. Imagine the point at the end of the previous sentence. And then imagine it getting smaller and smaller until it disappears. We can only use a dot to represent the point.

Angle C is inscribed in circle O.
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

The radius of circle O is 8.5 Units

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution

The radius of a circle is refereed to as the  half of the diameter.

Now,

On how to figure out the length of AB, we apply the  Pythagorean's equation or formula which is given below

Thus,

a² + b² = c²

(15)² + (8)² = c²

225 + 64 = c²

√289 = √c²

Then

c = 17

What this shows is that  AB is 17 units.

Since we have gotten the diameter, the next step is to divide into half the know the radius value

Therefore,

17 ÷ 2 = 8.5 Units

= 8.5 Units.
