Because this is a triangle and we know that we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the hypotenuse we just plug in the numbers. But because you have the hypotenuse already you will subtract the leg from the hypotenuse.
A^2+B^2=C^
16^2+B^2=20^2
256+B^2=400 subtract 256 from both sides
B^2=144 now take the square root of both sides
B=12
The second leg is 12 cm long. Your answer is B, the second answer.
It would be great if you added some more details, but for common denominators you try to find the least common number that the 2 or more of the numbers you got have!
For example:
1/2 and 2/3 if you multiply 2 by 3 and 3 by 2, they both are 6, so you would multiply 1/2 both by 3 to make it into 3/6 and 2/3 by 2 to make it into 4/6!
Answer:
x = -31/4 or x = 17/4
Step-by-step explanation:
|4x + 7| − 4 = 20
⇔ |4x + 7| − 4 + 4 = 20 + 4
⇔ |4x + 7| = 24
⇔ 4x + 7 = 24 or 4x + 7 = -24
⇔ 4x = 24 - 7 or 4x = -24 - 7
⇔ 4x = 17 or 4x = -31
⇔ x = 17/4 or x = -31/4
Answer:
D. Dilate rectangle A by a scale factor of 3 with the center of dilation at the origin and rotate it 90° clockwise about the origin.
Step-by-step explanation:
The coordinates of triangle A are (-2,1) , (1,1), (1,-1) and (-2, -1) while that of triangle B are (-3, 6), (3, 6), (3, -3) and (-3, 3).
To transform A to be we need a combination of two transformations, and that is dilation and rotation.
If A is dilated by a scale factor three through the origin as the center of dilation and then rotated through 90° clockwise with the origin as the center of origin, then rectangle B will be obtained.
