Answer: b=\sqrt{c^{2}-a^{2}}

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the exercise you must solve for b from the formula for the hypotenuse, as you can see below:

- Square both sides of the equation as following:

c^{2}=(\sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2}})^{2}

- Now you must subtract a² from each side of the equation, then you obtain:

c^2-a^{2}=a^{2}-a^{2}+b^{2}

c^2-a^{2}=b^{2}

- Apply square root to both sides:

\sqrt{b^{2}}=\sqrt{c^{2}-a^{2}}

Then:

b=\sqrt{c^{2}-a^{2}}

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

c = \sqrt{a^2+b^2}

Square both sides

c² = a² + b² ( subtract a² from both sides )

c² - a² = b² ( take the square root of both sides )

\sqrt{c^2-a^2} = b

⇒ b = \sqrt{c^2-a^2}

For the given function, find the vertical and horizontal asymptote(s) (if there are any). f(x) = the quantity x squared plus thr
vodka [1.7K]
The vertical asymptotes are:  "x = 3" and "x = -3" .
__________________________________________
The horizontal asymptote is:  "y = 2"  .  
___________________________________________
Explanation:
___________________________________________

f(x) = \frac{x^{2}+ 3}{ x^{2} - 9} ;

We know that "(x² − 9) ≠ 0 ; since we cannot divide by "0" ; so the "denominator" in the fraction cannot be "0" ;

 since: 9 − 9 = 0 ;  "x² " cannot equal 9.

So, what values for "x" exist when "x = 9" ?

 x² = 9 ;  

Take the square root of EACH SIDE of the equation ; to isolate "x" on one side of the <span>equation ; and</span> to solve for "x" ;

  √(x²) = √9 ;

     x = ± 3 
<span>__________________________________________
So; the vertical asymptotes are:  "x = 3" and "x = -3" .
__________________________________________
The horizontal asymptote is:  "y = 2"  .  
__________________________________________
(since:  We have: </span>f(x) = \frac{x^{2}+ 3}{ x^{2} - 9} ;

The "x² / x² " as the highest degree polymonials; both with "implied" coefficients of "1" ; and both raised to the same exponential power of "2".

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

10.29

Step-by-step explanation:

use Pythagorean theorem

side opposite to 90 is always hypotenuse

and we know

h^2=p^2+b^2

you can put any side as perpendicular or base.
