Answer:
A. x = 4
B. RQ = 6
C. 48 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
A. 3x - 2 = 10
3x = 12
x = 12/3
B. a^2 + b^2 = c^2
8^2 + b^2 = 10^2
64 + b^2 = 100
b = sqrt (100 - 64
b = 6
C. Area of a triangle = (b*h)/2
b = (2)(6) = 12
Area = (12 * 8)/2 = 48 square units
What if you divide it by 100?
By the Pythagorean theorem
50^2 = x^2 +(x +34)^2
2500 = 2x^2 +68x + 1156
x^2 +34x -672 = 0
(x -14)(x +48) = 0
x = 14 or -48
The distance from the wall to the base of the ladder is 14 ft.

7-24-25 is a Pythagorean triple. The dimensions here are double those values. It can be handy to know a few of the Pythagorean triples, as that can let you write down the answers to problems without having to go through the equations.
Well first you can do the problem. So take 60 divided by 5.7. When it is done it will come out to about 10.5263 which is a irrational number. So yes the quotient will be larger than 10.
Hope I helped!
To find the decimal form of 13/250 you must divide 13 by 250 which is 0.052
