The length of the other leg is 45

A^2+b^2=c^2
Plug the numbers in and square them
784+ b= 2809
-784 -784

Subtract 784 from both sides and
Take the square root of 2025 which is 45

Hope this helps!

If the length of one leg of a right triangle is 4 and the hypotenuse is √65 , what is the length of the other leg?
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity on the right triangle

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.

let x be the other leg, then

x² + 4² = (\sqrt{65} )²

x² + 16 = 65 ( subtract 16 from both sides )

x² = 49 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{49} = 7

That is the other leg is 7 units

Simplify the expression. (x^2 - 9)/(x^2 + 2x - 15)
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

We have

\frac{x^2-9}{x^2+2x-15}

\frac{\left(x+3\right)\left(x-3\right)}{x^2+2x-15}

\frac{\left(x+3\right)\left(x-3\right)}{\left(x-3\right)\left(x+5\right)}

\frac{x+3}{x+5}

∴The answer is D
