Answer:

x = 7.1 to the nearest tenth.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hypotenuse = 10;

Opposite = 7; and

Adjacent = x

Pythagoras rule states that square Hypotenuse side is equal to square Opposite side Plus square Adjacent side, so we solve;

(hyp)² = (opp)² + (adj)². Plug the in:

(10)² = (7)² + (x)²

Evaluate

100 = 49 + x²

subtract 49 from both sides

100 - 49 = 49 - 49 + x²

51 = x²

square root both sides to get rid of the square

√51 = √x², the square cancels the square root

√51 = 7.14

7.14 = x

or x = 7.14 to the nearest tenth.

x = 7.1

                         <u>Check</u>

(10)² = (7)² + (7.14)²

100 = 49 + 50.97 ( approximately = 51)

100 = 49 + 51

100 = 100.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

7.1

Step-by-step explanation:

By using Pythagorean theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2, we can find the missing length of the leg. a^2+7^2=10^2. 7 is the leg length given and 10 is the hypotenuse. Then we solve from there.

a^2+49=100

a^2=51

(sqrt)a^2=(sqrt)51

a=7.14142.....

rounded to the nearest tenth is 7.1

What is meant by green mathematics?
ad-work [718]

The green mathematics tells about the impulse response of an in homogeneous linear differential operator.

According to the statement

we have to explain the green mathematics.

In mathematics, Actually there is a Green Function which was founded by a mathematician George Green.

In this function, a Green's function is the impulse response of an in homogeneous linear differential operator defined on a domain with specified initial conditions or boundary conditions.

The example of green function is the Green's function G is the solution of the equation LG = δ, where δ is Dirac's delta function; the solution of the initial-value problem Ly = f is the convolution (G ⁎ f), where G is the Green's function.

Actually in this function, it gives the relationship between the line integral of two dimensional vector over a closed path by a integral.

In this there is a green theorem, which  relates a line integral around a simply closed plane curve C and a double integral over the region enclosed by C.

So, The green mathematics tells about the impulse response of an in homogeneous linear differential operator.

Part 3: Write the equation of and graph an ellipse.
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The center is halfway between vertices, at (4, -6).

It is also halfway between foci.

:::::

The vertices are vertically aligned, so the parabola is vertical.

General equation for a vertical ellipse:

 (y-k)²/a² + (x-h)²/b² = 1

with

 center (h,k)

 vertices (h,k±a)

 co-vertices (h±b,k)

 foci (h,k±c), c² = a²-b²

Apply your data and solve for h, k, a, and b.

center (h,k) = (4, -6)

h = 4

k = -6

vertices (4,-6±a) = (4,-6±9)

a = 9

foci (4,-6±c) = (4,-6±5√2)

b² = a² - c² = 9² - (5√2)² = 31

b = √31

The equation becomes

 (y+6)²/81 + (x-4)²/31 = 1

:::::

length of major axis = 2a = 18

length of minor axis = 2b = 2√31
