Answer: No, we don't have a right triangle
==========================================================
Explanation:
If a triangle with sides a,b,c makes the equation a^2+b^2 = c^2 true, where c is the longest side, then this triangle is a right triangle. This is the converse of the pythagorean theorem.
Here we have a = 2, b = 5 and c = 7.
So...
a^2+b^2 = c^2
2^2+5^2 = 7^2
4+25 = 49
29 = 49
The last equation is false, so the first equation is false for those a,b,c values. Therefore, we do <u>not</u> have a right triangle.
------------
In contrast, consider the classic 3-4-5 right triangle
a = 3, b = 4 and c = 5 would make a^2+b^2 = c^2 true because 3^2+4^2 = 5^2 is a true equation (both sides lead to 25).
Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
We can tell by looking at this triangle that this is a <u>45 45 90 triangle.</u>
In this situation, the hypotenuse is
and the legs are both
.So if we look at the hypotenuse, we can tell that x, or the leg of the triangle, is 7.
45 45 90 triangles: This is a special triangle in which the angles of the triangle are 45 45 and 90 degrees. This means that the hypotenuse will be
and the legs of the triangle will be
. You can usually use the Pythagorean theorem to solve the missing sides.
<span>y=4x+8 is a linear function with slope 4 and y-intercept 8.
If x=0, y=8; the y-intercept is (0,8).
If x=1, y=4(1)+8 = 12
If x=5, y=28
and so on</span>
