The Pythagorean Theorem is used to find a missing side of a Right triangle when given the other two sides. 

a^2 + b^2 = c^2
<span>
a = Side 1

b = Side 2

c = hypotenuse ( longest side )</span>

The Pythagorean Theorem states that a triangle's hypotenuse is equal to the square's of the other two sides of the triangle.

a² + b² = c<span>²
a = side of triangle
b = other side of triangle
c = hypotenuse (squared)

Find the square root to find the accurate length of the hypotenuse.</span>

garik1379 [7]
 So, if L = length, and W = width, and we know what the length is, than we know that L = 24. Now here is the equation I've used:  2w=L+3 .
<span>So solve this like so:
</span><span>
2w=24+3 
2w=27 
w=13.5
So the width is 13.5.

Answer:

  x = 7 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The smaller triangle is 6/9 = 2/3 the size of the larger triangle, so the left side is ...

  (x -2) = (2/3)(8)

  3(x -2) = 16 . . . . . multiply by 3 to clear fractions

  3x -6 = 16 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  3x = 22 . . . . . . . . add 6; next divide by 3*

  x = 22/3 = 7 1/3 . . . . . feet

_____

* Note that we multiplied by 3, then divided by 3. If you're comfortable working with fractions and/or mixed numbers, these steps are unnecessary. The answer is simply x = 2 + 16/3 = 22/3.
