Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the missing length in the right triangle

Mathematics
1 answer:
Gelneren [198K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

it depends

Step-by-step explanation:

If 17 is the hypotenuse

c=17\\\\b=12\\\\a=?\\\\c^{2} =a^2+b^2\\\\17^2=a^2+12^2\\\\17^2-12^2=a^2\\\\(17-12)(17+12)=a^2\\\\5(27)=a^2\\\\a=\sqrt{9*3*5} \\\\a=3\sqrt{15} \\\\a=11.6

if you are looking for the hypotenuse

a=17\\\\b=12\\\\c=?\\\\a^2+b^2=c^2\\\\17^2+12^2=c^2\\\\289+144=c^2\\\\433=c^2\\\\c=\sqrt{433} \\\\c=20.8

A house was purchased for $89,000. After 6 years the value of the house was $101,000. Find a linear equation that models the val
mamaluj [8]

Answer:  y = 2000x + 89000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

initial purchase amount = $89,000

price after 6 years = $ 101,000

years = 6

now

slope = ( 101000 - 89000) / 6

slope = 12000 / 6

slope = 2000

therefore the linear equation that models the value of the house after x years will be;

y = 2000x + 89000

The length of a rectangle is 2 cm more than four times the width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 84 cm, what are its dimen
katovenus [111]

Answer:

Length 34 cm

Width 8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the length of the rectangle

y----> the width of the rectangle

we know that

The perimeter of rectangle is equal to

P=2(x+y)

P=84 cm

so

84=2(x+y)

42=x+y ----> equation A

x=4y+2 -----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

42=(4y+2)+y

5y=42-2

y=40/5=8 cm

Find the value of x

x=4y+2 ----> x=4(8)+2=34 cm

The dimensions are

Length 34 cm

Width 8 cm
