Pythagorean :

hypotenuse^2= base^2+height ^2
19^2=8^2+height ^2
height^2=(19-8)(19+8)
height ^2=11.27
height ~17,74

So, teh exact value is sqrt( 19^2 - 8^2 ) = sqrt( 361-64) = sqrt(297).

There's people who can calculate this mentally, but I can't. Approximate by known squares: 15^2 = 225, 16^2 = 256, 17^2= 289, 18^2=324,

So, 18.

Solve the following two equations. Show all of your
Elena L [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Two equations,

3x + 11 = 11 .....(1)

And

3(x - 3) = 45

or

3x-9=45 ....(2)

Subtract 11 on both sides of equation (1).

3x + 11-11 = 11-11

3x=0

x = 0

Add 9 to both sides of equation (2)

3x-9+9=45+9

3x = 54

x = 18

Hence, the solution of equation (1) is x=0 and form equation (2) x = 18.
