A right triangle has leg lengths 8 and x. The hypotenuse length is (x + 2). What is the length of the hypotenuse?
1 answer:
Answer:
17 is the length of the hypotenuse.
Step-by-step explanation:
The pythagora theorem tells us a²+b²=c², where C is hypotenuse.
Replace the given info into the formula:
8² + x² = (x+2)²
64 + x² = x² + 4x + 4
64 - 4 = 4x
60 = 4x
x = 60/4
x = 15
Hypotenuse length is 15+2=17

Answer:
height AB is 8 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
AB= √AC^2- BC^2
= √(10)^2- (6)^2
= √100-36
= √64
= 8
-9x + 2 > 18.
-9x > 16
x < -16/9
13x ≤ -19
x ≤ -19/13
x < -16/9 or. x ≤ -19/13
