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.

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Option B) w = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the value of w to make the given expression true.

The given expression is:

14=11+\dfrac{w}{8}\cdot6\\\\14-11 = \dfrac{w}{8}\cdot6\\\\3 = \dfrac{w}{8}\cdot6\\\\\Rightarrow w = \dfrac{3 \cdot 8}{6} = 4

Option B) w = 4 is the correct answer.
