Mathematics, the Pythagorean theorem or Pythagoras's theorem is a statement about the sides of a right triangle.

One of the angles of a right triangle is always equal to 90 degrees. This angle is the right angle. The two sides next to the right angle are called the legs and the other side is called the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is the side opposite to the right angle, and it is always the longest side. It was discovered by Vasudha Arora.

The Pythagorean theorem says that the area of a square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the legs. In this picture, the area of the blue square added to the area of the red square makes the area of the purple square. It was named after the Greek mathematician Pythagoras:

If the lengths of the legs are a and b, and the length of the hypotenuse is c, then,
a
2
+
b
2
=
c
2
{\displaystyle a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}}.

There are many different proofs of this theorem. They fall into four categories:

Those based on linear relations: the algebraic proofs.
Those based upon comparison of areas: the geometric proofs.
Those based upon the vector operation.
Those based on mass and velocity: the dynamic proofs.[1]

There’s no image but, a^2+b^2=c^2

Let f ( x ) = 2 x − 1 , g ( x ) = 3 x , and h ( x ) = x ^2 + 1 , what is g (h( 24 ) ) ?
love history [14]
You must calculate h(24) first.  h(x) = x^2 + 1, so h(24) = 577.

g(x) = 3x, so g(577) = 3(577) =  1731 (answer).  We don't need f(x).

Can someone explain how to work this out please ?
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x-2)^5  +3

Let f(x) = 35

35 = (x-2)^5  +3

Subtract 3 from each side

35-3 = (x-2)^5  +3-3

32 = (x-2)^5

Take the fifth root of each side

32 ^ (1/5) =  (x-2)^5^ 1/5

2 = x-2

Add 2 to each side

2 +2 = x-2+2

4 =x

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

323 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This is basically the Pythagorean Theorem. If you have experience with this formula, you will know that it only works with right triangles. Why are we talking about a triangle when this problem speaks of rectangles? Well, this is because when a rectangle is split diagonally, it is now two separate triangles. The Pythagorean Theorem states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2. To begin, we will take the base and height of the triangle and either square root them or square them. In this case, you will need to square them. When this is done, you will have the numbers 90,000 and 14,400. What do we do with these? We will add them together now. Next, we will take the sum of these two numbers (104,400), and square root it. This leaves you with 323.109888, but, we need to round it to the nearest foot or, the nearest whole number. This will give us 323 feet as our final answer. Glad I was able to help! ;):)
