A2 + b2 = c2 40 + b2 = 26 40-26=14 So the other leg is 14 and you might still need to calcualate the root

Hypotenuse is 26 mm
so if we use the p theorem
a^2+b^2 = c^2
and theyre giving us c (26mm)
and theyre giving us one leg (10mm)
just plug it in and solve for the missing variable
10^2 +b^2 = 26^2
100+b^2 =676
b^2 = 576
square root of both sides to solve for b
b = plus or minus 24
But the length cannot be a negative length
so the answer is
b = +24

Consider the function f(x) = x2 + 2x – 35. If one of the zeros of the

Whitepunk [10]

If one zeros is x= -7 then the other zero is x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function: $f(x) = x^2 + 2x-35$

If one zeros of the function is x=-7 we need to find other zero of the function.

We can find zeros of the quadratic equation by factorizing the equation

$f(x) = x^2 + 2x-35$

Factorizing the quadratic equation:

$x^2 + 2x-35=0\\x^2-5x+7x-35=0\\x(x-5)+7(x-5)=0\\(x+7)(x-5)=0\\x+7=0\,\,and\,\,x-5=0\\x=-7\,\,and\,\,x=5$

So, if one zeros is x= -7 then the other zero is x=5

How many points do you need in order to name a ray? O one four о three two

yawa3891 [41]

<h3>Answer: D) Two</h3>

You need the starting point, and another point that helps direct where the ray is aimed. Call these two points A and B.

Saying "Ray AB" means we extend a line through AB such that the line goes forever through B and beyond B, but we do not do the same for point A. The point A is effectively a cliff where no road goes on the other side of it. Check out the diagram below to see what I mean. The arrow means the line goes on forever in that direction.
