1: 7
2: Yes, 20 because it’s isolated from the rest of the points
(I don’t know the other ones, sorryyyyy)
Longer leg = x + 4
Shorter leg = x
Hypotenuse = x + 8
Using Pythagorean Theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
(x + 4)^2 + x^2 = (x + 8)^2
x^2 + 8x + 16 + x^2 = x^2 + 16x + 64
2x^2 + 8x + 16 = x^2 + 16x + 64
2x^2 +8x = x^2 + 16x + 48
2x^2 - 8x = x^2 + 48
x^2 - 8x = 48
x^2 - 8x - 48 = 0
You can complete the square from here or use the quadratic formula.
Completing the square:
x^2 - 8x = 48
x^2 - 8x + (-8/2)^2 = 48 + (-8/2)^2
x^2 - 8x + 16 = 48 + 16
(x - 4)(x - 4) = 64 or (x - 4)^2 = 64
x - 4 = +√64 OR x - 4 = -√64
x - 4 = +8 OR x - 4 = -8
x = 12 OR x = -4
However, you can't use negative 4 as a length because your length needs to be a positive.
So x will be 12.
Shorter leg: 12
Longer leg: 12 + 4
Hypotenuse: 12 + 8
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Believe it or not, the two areas are the same.
The base of the rectangle is PQ
The height of the rectangle is PS
Now look at the parallelogram.
The base is PQ
The height is PS
The area has to be the same in both cases. There is no other way to interpret what is happening.
The answer is 36.
You subtract or decrease the number by 8 every time.
Step-by-step explanation:
Case 1 :
Case 2 :
