A and b are the 2 smaller sides, and c = hypotenus; only for right triangles,
Pythagorean Theorem states that:
{c}^{2}  =  {a}^{2}  +  {b}^{2}
given c = 6 in., a = 2 in.
{c}^{2}  =  {a}^{2}  +  {b}^{2}  \\  {6}^{2}  =  {2}^{2}  +  {b}^{2}  \\ {b}^{2} =  {6}^{2}  -  {2}^{2} = 36 - 4   \\ \sqrt{ {b}^{2} }  =  \sqrt{36 - 4}  =  \sqrt{32}
b =  \sqrt{32}   =  \sqrt{16}  \times  \sqrt{2}  = 4 \sqrt{2}  \\ b = 5.66 \: inches
So the three side are 2, 6, and 5.66 inches

PLEASE HELP IM DOING SO BAD ALREADY I NEED A GOOD GRADE. In the square below, the four quarter-circles are congruent. Find the a
Neko [114]
I'm assuming a quarter-circle is exactly 1/4 of a circle.  Thus if you have 4 congruent quarter-circles, that should mean they make a complete circle.

If that is the case, then we can find the area of the full circle using pi*r^2.

So the area of the circle is 5^2*pi or 25pi.

To find the area of the shaded region, we subtract the area of the circle from the area of the square.

The area of the square is 10^2 or 100.

So the area of the shaded region is 100 - 25pi.

My calculator says that equals roughly 21.46

Is the following shape a rectangle? how do you know?
Usimov [2.4K]
Slope of AB =  1/3 and slope of  BC = -3    so these 2 lines are perpendicular
The same is true for all the other adjjacent pairs of lines.
Oppoitse lines are also paralllel (  slope of AB = 1/3 and slope of  DC = 1/3)  and other pair are both of slope -3.

So Its C
