A and b are legs
a^2+b^2=c^2
lets say
a>b
so
a=13+3b
c=14+3b
a^2+b^2=c^2
(13+3b)^2+b^2=(14+3b)^2
9b^2+78b+169+b^2=9b^2+84b+196
10b^2+78b+169=9b^2+84b+196
minus 9b^2 both sides
b^2+78b+169=84b+196
minus 84b both sides
b^2-6b+169=196
minus 196 both sides
b^2-6b-27=0
factor
(b+3)(b-9)=0
set to zero
b+3=0
b=-3, false, dimentions cannot be negative
b-9=0
b=9
shorter leg is 9
a=13+3b
a=13+3(9)
a=13+27
a=40
c=14+3b
c=14+27
c=41
side legnths are
9in, 40in, 41in
20.2m-11.8
Incase your wondering what happened to the y it got canceled out because they were equal on both sides.
Answer
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The answer is option B
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for circumference is pi*d which in this case the diameter is 3. Therefore you would do pi*3.
Reference the image below if you need to.
We start at red point (0,0) and reflect across blue line x= -3.
This puts the point equidistance away on the opposite side at blue point (-6, 0).
That point is then reflected across green line y= -3,
and ends up at
green point
(-6, -6).
