Note that c is the hypotenuse of the blue triangle, and that the Pyth. Thm. states that (length of one leg)^2 + (length of the other leg)^2 = (hyp)^2.
Therefore, (hyp)^2 = c^2 = [2sqrt(x^2+3x)]^2 + 3^2, or
= 4(x^2+3x) + 9, or
= 4x^2 + 12x + 9 = (2x+3)^2
Taking the sqrt of both sides, c = plus or minus (2x+3). Eliminate -(2x+3) because the middle term of the square of this would be negative, in conflict with the given +12x.
c=2x+3 is the correct answer.
Answer: 7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4 is the anwers because you need to reduce the fraction
Answer:
YZ = 8.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since RY is an angle bisector then the ratio of the sides of the triangle are equal to the corresponding ratio of the base, that is
=
, substitute values
=
( cross- multiply )
7YZ = 59.5 ( divide both sides by 7 )
YZ = 8.5
