Find the third side in simplest radical form:​

Mathematics
1 answer:
leonid [27]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The third side is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 =c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

a^2 + 15^2 = 17^2

a^2 +225 = 289

Subtract 225 from each side

a^2 +225-225=289-225

a^2 = 64

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(64)

a= 8

You need to use a common denominator. The least common denominator of 11 and 22 is 22.

3/22 + -1/11 = 3/22 + -2/22 = 3/22 - 2/22 = 1/22

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

7 cards.

Step-by-step explanation:
