What you are hoping for is that it is a right triangle. Use Pythagoras formula. <span><span>c2</span>=<span>a2</span>+<span>b2</span></span> where c is the longest side. IF you get a true statement out of this then your triangle is a right triangle. <span><span>162</span>=<span>102</span>+<span>112</span></span>? <span>256=100+121</span>? <span>256=221</span><span>? no, 256 does not equal 221, so in this case it is not a right triangle
</span>.and it is scalene triangle with three different sides

It is a scalene triangle as all the sides are unequal in length.

Write the ratio 42 inches to 9 feet as a fraction in simplest form. Explain why you get the same result whether you convert feet
V125BC [204]
Let's convert one of these numbers:
1 foot = 12 inches

9 feet were 9*12=108 inches

so the ratio would be 42: 108

or we can simplify it: divide by 2:
21:54

divide by 3:
7:18

A ratio always stays the same no matter the unit or currency, so it doesn't matter which unit we convert it to.

Show whether or not y=x+3 is tangential to the curve y^2=x​
wolverine [178]

The line y = x + 3 has slope 1, so we look for points on the curve where the tangent line, whose slope is dy/dx, is equal to 1.

y² = x

Take the derivative of both sides with respect to x, assuming y = y(x) :

2y dy/dx = 1

dy/dx = 1/(2y)

Solve for y when dy/dx = 1 :

1 = 1/(2y)

2y = 1

y = 1/2

When y = 1/2, we have x = y² = (1/2)² = 1/4. However, for the given line, when y = 1/2, we have x = y - 3 = 1/2 - 3 = -5/2.

This means the line y = x + 3 is not a tangent to the curve y² = x. In fact, the line never even touches y² = x :

x = y²   ⇒   y = y² + 3   ⇒   y² - y + 3 = 0

has no real solution for y.
