Answer:
b = 12.6
Step-by-step explanation:
a*2 + b*2 = c*2
6*2 + b*2 = 14*2
36 + b*2 = 196
Subtract 36 from both sides
36 + b*2 = 196
-36 -36
b*2 = 160
Find the square root of both
b = 12.64911064 or 12.6
Now that we’ve learned how to solve word problems involving the sum of consecutive integers, let’s narrow it down and this time, focus on word problems that only involve finding the sum of consecutive even integers.
But before we start delving into word problems, it’s important that we have a good understanding of what even integers, as well as consecutive even integers, are.
Even Integers
We know that even numbers are integers that can be divided exactly or evenly by 22. Thus, the general form of the even integer nn, is n = 2kn=2k, where kk is also an integer.
In other words, since even numbers are the multiples of 22, we can represent an even integer nn by 2k2k, where kk is also an integer. So if we have the even integers 1010 and 1616,
Unsure of what you are asking!
But if the issue here is how to define a line segment, write what you do know and then reconsider "undefined terms."
A line segment is a straight line that connects a given starting point and given ending point.
If you consider a circle of radius 3 units, the radius can be thought of as the line segment connecting the center of the circle to any point on the circumference of the circle.
If the center of a given circle is at C(0,0) and a point on the circumference is given by R(3sqrt(2),3sqrt(2)), then AC is the line segment joining these two points. This line segment has length 3 and is in the first quadrant, with coordinates x=3sqrt(2) and y=3sqrt(2) describing the end point of the segment.
