Let x be the width , then the height = 4x
Area of this right triangle is x(4x)/2
Area = 4x²/2 = 32 m²
x² = 16
x = 4 m. If the width is 4 m, the height = 4 x 4 = 16 m

Do not understand please help <br> Thank u

Answer:

43.4

Step-by-step explanation:

You will need to use the phythagoream therom, which is a² + b² = c².  Plug the values in for the variables to get 7² + b² = 44², (c would equal the hypothenuse because the hypothenuse is the longest side of the triangle.)  Square the values to get 49 + b² = 1936.  Subtract 49 from both sides to get b² = 1887, then take the square root of both sides to get b = 43.4 (rounded to the nearest tenth.)  

I am really sorry if I'm wrong, but have a good day/night!  :)

Use the square root property to solve x^2-9=0<br> Please help and please show work if you can
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

x = 3 or -3

Step-by-step explanation:

So you have the equation x² - 9 = 0

Move the 9 to the other side: x² = 9

Then take the square root of both sides: \sqrt{x^{2} } = ±\sqrt{9}

x = ±\sqrt{9} = ±3

x = 3 or -3
