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

The ball's maximum height is 30.25 feet.

<h3>What is quadratic equation?</h3>

A quadratic equation in math is a second-degree equation of the form ax² + bx + c = 0. Here a, b, are the coefficients, c is the constant term, and x is the variable.

Given:

h= -16t²+36t+10

Differentiate w.r.t. 't',

h' = -32t+36

When h=0, that will be the maximum height

32t= 36

t= 9/8

t= 1.125 sec.

So, The maximum height is

h(1.123)= -16(1.125)² + 36*1.125+10

h(1.125) = 30.25 feet.
