Pythagorean theorem is a^2 + b^2 = c^2
2. You are trying to find x which is c^2
so plug in the other numbers to the other letters. 9^2 + 17^2 = c^2
9^2= 81. 17^2= 289
81 + 289 = 370
370= c^2
Now all you have to do is square root the number
*square root sign* 370
19.24
c = 19.24
So, x = 19.24

The diagram shows a circle inside a square. a O 16 cm Work out the area of the circle.

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

perimeter of circle=2πr

16=2πr

r=16/2π=8/πcm

now.

area of circle=πr²=π(8/π)²=π×64/π²=64/(22/7)=64×7/22=20.36cm²

12. In the given figure, RS is parallel to PQ, If RS = 3 cm, PQ = 6 cm and ar(∆TRS) = 15cm³, then ar (∆TPQ) = ? (a) 70 cm² (b) 5

Gnesinka [82]

$\large\underline{\sf{Solution-}}$

Given that,

In triangle TPQ, 

RS || PQ,

RS = 3 cm,

PQ = 6 cm,

ar(∆ TRS) = 15 sq. cm

As it is given that, RS || PQ

So, it means

⇛∠TRS = ∠TPQ [ Corresponding angles ]

⇛ ∠TSR = ∠TPQ [ Corresponding angles ]

$\rm\implies \: \triangle TPQ \: \sim \: \triangle TRS \: \: \: \: \: \: \{AA \}$

Now, We know 

Area Ratio Theorem,

This theorem states that :- The ratio of the area of two similar triangles is equal to the ratio of the squares of corresponding sides.

$\rm\implies \:\dfrac{ar( \triangle \: TPQ)}{ar( \triangle \: TRS)} = \dfrac{ {PQ}^{2} }{ {RS}^{2} }$

$\rm\implies \:\dfrac{ar( \triangle \: TPQ)}{15} = \dfrac{ {6}^{2} }{ {3}^{2} }$

$\rm\implies \:\dfrac{ar( \triangle \: TPQ)}{15} = \dfrac{36 }{9}$

$\rm\implies \:\dfrac{ar( \triangle \: TPQ)}{15} = 4$

$\rm\implies \:ar( \triangle \: TPQ) = 60 \: {cm}^{2}$

(8x-5) (2x) (3x-10). what is the largest angle??

kompoz [17]

8x-5 would be the largest angle because as you approach a larger and larger x value, 8x-5 will skyrocket past the other two. Also when you plug in a low value like 1, 8x-5=3, which is still higher than the other two. The only exception is if you plug in a negative x value which is impossible.
8x-5
