Hello there! :D

I love showing people how to use this concept, so lets get right to it! If you have trouble with negative (-) signs and how they interact with each other, I suggest you watch some Khan academy videos, it could realy help you in the future! :)

Alright, so here's the general rule: (multiplication and division)

-,-= +

-,+ = -

+,+=+

So, with this rule, I think we can solve!

Firstly, remember PEMDAS.

Let's look at the signs first. Two negatives equal a positive. Make the 3y in the parenthesis positive. Think of the negative sign as a -1 that is being multiplied by the (-3y) and the y.

That would look like this:

(y) (-1) (-3y)

Now we have:

y*(3y)

So when multiplying a variable by a variable, it becomes squared.

So, we would have 3y^2 or 3y^{2}

If you have any questions about this problem feel free to comment on this answer.

I hope this helped you and you have a wonderful day,

Kai xx

The ΔPQR is right-angled at P, and PN is an altitude. If QN = 12 in and NR = 6 in, find PN, PQ, PR.
Goshia [24]
In the right triangle PQR:
Hypotenuse: QR = QN + NR = 12 + 6 = 18 cm
PN² = QN · NR
PN² = 12 · 6 = 72
PN = √72 = √(36 · 2 ) = 6√2 cm
PQ² = (6√2)² + 12² = 72 + 144 = 216
PQ = √216 = √(36 · 6 ) = 6√6 cm
PR² = 18² - (6√6)² = 324 - 216 = 108
PR = √108 = √(36 · 3) = 6√3 cm
Answer:
PN = 6√2 cm,
PQ = 6√6 cm,
PR = 6√3 cm.
