So, we know that a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Right? That is called the Pythagorean Theorem.
In this case. We can say that 39 is a, 40 is b, and x is c.
NOTE: It doesn't really matter whether 39 is a or b. a & b are just the two legs of the right triangle.
So, if we say that 39 is a, 40 is b, and x is c. We can plug it into the Pythagorean Theorem.
39^2 + 40^2 = x^2
I'll let you take it from there.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. -9x - 3 - 3 + 2x
-7x - 6
3. 3 - 4x - 7x - 2
-11x - 1
4. 5x - 1 + 3 + 2x
7x + 2
Answer:
69
"bring me my money"
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance from the owl to the squirrel would be found by using the law of sins/co-sins
Cos (known angle) = adjacent leg / hypotenuse ( distance wanted)
cos(50) = 14 / x
x = 14 / cos50
x = 21.78 feet
The problem doesn't say if the answer should be rounded or not. You may have to round the answer if needed.
Answer:
10 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Moving from (-3, -6) to (3, 2), x increases by 6. Draw a triangle and use this 6 as the length of the base. y increases by 8. Label the height of the triangle with this 8. Then find the hypotenuse (which is also the desired distance) by using the Pythagorean Theorem:
6^2 + 8^2 = d^2, where d is that distance:
36 + 64 = 100 = d^2, and so d = 10. The distance in question is 10 units.
