Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let, one leg be x units.
since the other leg is 9.0 units shorter than the other,
the measure of the other leg =x-9
hypotenuse =13.0 units
According to Pythagorean theorem, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides.
x^2 +(x-9)^2 =13^2
x^2 + x^2 -18x +81 = 169
2x^2-18x-88=0
Divide the whole equation by 2
x^2 - 9x -44 =0
Let's use the quadratic formula to find the roots.
formula: x= [-b ± sqrt(b^2-4*a*c)]/2*a
a=1 b=-9 c=-44
x= [9±sqrt(81+176)]/2
=[9±sqrt(257)]/2
=[9±16.03]/2
=25.03/2 or -7.03/2
length of a triangle cannot be negative,
Therefore, x=25.03/2 =12.52
one leg =12.5 units
other leg =12.52-9 =3.5 units
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula we need to solve this is:

Where
is the distance from one focus to the vertex
is the second distance from another focus to same vertex
<u>Note:</u> Here, vertex point is the point on top. The common point from which the RED and BLUE line meets the 2 foci
is half the length of the major axis (which is 9 here since total major axis is given as 18)
<em>Now we can plug into the equation and solve:</em>
<em>
</em>

<em>D is the correct answer.</em>
