Answer 1

Answer:

1a. 8

1b. AB & BC

1c. AC

2. $\sqrt{52}$ miles

3. NO

Step-by-step explanation:

1a. AC is your hypotenuse which is C² and BC is B², so we plug it in the equation.

A²+6²=10²

A²+36=100

A²=64

A=$\sqrt{64}$

A=8

1b. Legs are the two shorter sides, AB & BC, which are 6 & 8 respectively.

1c. The hypotenuse is the longest side AC

2. Make lines that make the graph for a triangle with a line. My graph is linked below. Then counts the points, AC=6, BC=4, then use the pythagorean therom.

6²+4²=X²

36+16=52

$\sqrt{52}$=X

3. 15²+17²=19²

514=361

not possible

so it is not a right triangle
