H(ft) = √ (13² - 4²) = 12.4

It is a right-angled triangle and the Pythagorean theorem applies.

THEOREMA (by Pythagoras):
Given a right-angled triangle ABCABC as in the figure, then the relation is valida2 + b2 = c2a2 + b2 = c2where cc is the hypotenuse of the triangle and b, ab, a are the cathets.

h(ft) = √ (13² - 4²) = 12.4

Add the equations. 2x-3y = -1 + 3x + 3y= 26

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

The answer in the procedure

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

2x-3y=-1 ----> equation A

3x+3y=26 --> equation B

Solve the system by elimination

Adds equation A and equation B

2x-3y=-1

3x+3y=26

----------------

2x+3x=-1+26

5x=25

x=25/5

x=5

Find the value of y

substitute the value of x in equation A or equation B and solve for y

2(5)-3y=-1

10-3y=-1

3y=10+1

y=11/3
