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>

frez [133]
We must solve for x.  Let's simplify this equation by dividing both sides by 6:

|2x-14|=7, which is the same as 2|x-7|=7.

First, assume that x-7 is already positive, so that we don't need the absolute value operator.  Then x-7=7/2.  Adding 7 to both sides results in x = 21/2.

Next, find the other solution:

Assume that x-7 is negative.  Then |x-7|=-(x-7).  Then -(x-7) = 7,

and -x + 7 = 7.  Thus, x = 0.

The solution set is {0, 21/2}.

Suppose two vectors point in opposite directions. This means their cross product must be zero. True or false?
snow_tiger [21]

It is true if two vectors point in opposite directions. This means their cross product must be zero.

<h3>What is cross product?</h3>

Cross product is a vector product of two vectors in the three dimensional vector space.

In the case when the two vectors point in opposite directions so there cross product should be zero.

Impact on two points:

In the case when the two vectors point in opposite directions so there cross product should be zero.

Like

A*B = [A][B] sin

Here theta is be the angle that lies between them

So,

A*B = [A][B] sin 180

So, A*B = 0

hence, the given statement is true.
