Answer:

134.4 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is asking us for a missing leg on the triangle, lets call it x. Using the Pythagorean theorem (a²+b²=c²), we can figure out what value is missing (either a or b, they are interchangeable).

replace the values in the equation.

83²+x²=158²

get rid of the exponents.

6,889+ x² = 24,964.

subtract 6,889 from 24,964.

x²=18,075.

find the square root on both sides of the equation.

x=134.4432966.

I am assuming you want this rounded to the nearest tenth.

134.4 is your answer.

Suppose A and B represent two different school populations where A &gt; B and A and B must be greater than 0. Which of the follo
Ulleksa [173]
We can reject the last one: subtracting a non-zero value will result in a smaller value.

So now we have:

<span>2(A + B)
(A + B)2
A2 + B2

If all of them are mulptiplications, then they are all equivalent!

I mean by this, if what you meant is this:

</span>
<span>2*(A + B)
(A + B)*2
A*2 + B*2

If there is no sign, then the multiplication sign is implicit,


and all of these expressions say exactly the same: two of A and two of B.
