das is part of a proof of pythagorean theorem


for a right triangle (has one interior angle as 90 degrees)

a^2+b^2=c^2

a and b are the lengths of the legs and c=length of hypotnuse (side oposite right angle)


we see that the lengths of the legs are 9in and 12in

a=9 and b=12 (or a=12 and b=9, doesn't matter)

we want to find c, or x in this case

so

a^2+b^2=c^2

9^2+12^2=x^2

81+144=x^2

225=x^2

15=x

x=15in

answer is 15 inches

using the pythagorean theorem

a^2+b^2 = c^2   where c is the hypotenuse

9^2 +12^2 = x^2

81 + 144 = x^2

225 = x^2

taking the square root of each side

sqrt(225) = x

15 =x

x = 15 inches

What is the radical form of the expression (2x^4y^5)^3/8
s344n2d4d5 [400]

We are given expression: (2x^4y^5)^{3/8}

Let us distribute 3/8 over exponents in parenthesis, we get

(2^{3/8}x^{4\times 3/8}y^{5\times 3/8}) = (2^{3/8}x^{12/8}y^{15/8})

= (2^{3/8}x^{1\frac{4}{8}} y^{1\frac{7}{8}} )

We can get x and y out of the radical because, we get whlole number 1 for x and y exponents for the mixed fractions.

So, we could write it as.

(2^{3/8}x^{1\frac{4}{8}} y^{1\frac{7}{8}} ) = xy(2^{\frac{3}{8} }x^{\frac{4}{8}} y^{\frac{7}{8}} )

Now, we could write inside expression of parenthesis in radical form.

xy\sqrt[8]{2x^{3}x^4y^7}
