Step-by-step explanation:

Let the missing leg or side is x

By Pythagoras theorem

29²=11²+x²

x=√(29²-11²)

x=26.83

How to find the legs of a right triangle with only the hypotenuse?

GuDViN [60]

Let x = legs of right triangle.

The set up would be:

x^2 + x^2 = (hypotenuse)^2

Understand?

2( 10 - a^2 ) + 7a If ( a = 4 )Evaluate each expression

Lostsunrise [7]

Solution:

Given:

$2(10-a^2)+7a$

when a = 4, substitute for a in the expression;

$\begin{gathered} 2(10-a^2)+7a=2(10-4^2)+7(4) \\ =2(10-16)+28 \\ =2(-6)+28 \\ =-12+28 \\ =16 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, if (a = 4), then

$2(10-a^2)+7a=16$

Hence, the answer is 16.

Answer:

VX = 8.8 in

Step-by-step explanation:

By applying Sine rule in the right triangle WXV,

Sin(∠W) = $\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$

= $\frac{\text{VX}}{\text{WX}}$

Sin(34)° = $\frac{VX}{15}$

VX = 15.Sin(34)°

= 8.8379

≈ 8.8 in.

Therefore, measure of side VX is 8.8 in.

Given: Circle O with diameter LN and inscribed angle LMN Prove: is a right angle. What is the missing reason in step 5? Statemen

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Inscribed angle theorem

Step-by-step explanation:

This theorem states that an angle θ inscribed in a circle is half of the central angle 2θ that subtends the same arc on the circle.

In this case, the angle is ∠LMN and the arc is arc LN. Arc LN measures 180°, because segment LN is the diameter of the circle. Then, by the theorem:

∠LMN = (1/2)*arc LN = (1/2)*180° = 90°
