Answer:

42 and 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y be the two numbers

the sum of the two numbers is 63

y+x = 63

The difference between the numbers is 21

x-y= 21

so the two equations are :

\left \{ {{x+y=63} \atop {x-y=21}} \right.

add both equations to eliminate y

x+y+x-y = 63+21

2x =84

x= 42

y= 42-21 = 21

the two numbers are 42 and 21

What is the height of a right triangle if its other two sides are 30 centimeters and 10 centimeters long?​
Mila [183]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It depends on whether the 30 cm side is the hypotenuse, or one of the legs.

If the 30 cm side is the hypotenuse, then the third side is √(30^2-10^2) = √800 = 20√2 cm

If the 30 cm side is one of the legs, then the hypotenuse is √(30^2+10^2) = √1,000 = 10√10 cm
