For a:
you have your opposite side
you need your hypotenuse
you should use the s.o.h
Answer:
The hypotenuse of the triangle measures 13 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the Pythagorean theorem states that in any right triangle the lengths of the three sides are related by the equation A ^ 2 + B ^ 2 = C ^ 2, to determine the length of the hypotenuse in a right thangle with legs 5 inches and 12 inches the following calculation should be performed:
5 ^ 2 + 12 ^ 2 = X ^ 2
25 + 144 = X ^ 2
√169 = X
13 = X
Therefore, the hypotenuse of the triangle measures 13 inches.
Answer:
8/10
Step-by-step explanation:
-4x + 7y = -8 . . . (1)
-5x + 6y = 1 . . . .(2)
(1) x 5 => -20x + 35y = -40 . . . (3)
(2) x 4 => -20x + 24y = 4 . . . . .(4)
(3) - (4) => 11y = -44 => y = -44/11 = -4
From (2), -5x + 6(-4) = 1 => -5x - 24 = 1 => -5x = 1 + 24 = 25 => x = 25/-5 = -5
Therefore, x = -5, y = -4
