A right triangle has a hypotenuse length of 13 units. One leg has a length of 12 units. Which equation can be used to determine

the length of the other leg?
Group of answer choices

LaTeX: a^2=12^2+13^2 a 2 = 12 2 + 13 2

LaTeX: a=\sqrt{13^2-12^2} a = 13 2 − 12 2

LaTeX: a^2=12^2-13^2 a 2 = 12 2 − 13 2

LaTeX: a=\sqrt{12^2+13^2} a = 12 2 + 13 2

Answer:

The length of the other leg is 12

We know that a²+b²=c²

So if you follow the pythagorean theorem,  we substitute the hypotenuse for c² and the leg (12) for either a² or b² because a and b are both legs, so it doesn't matter.

now we have a²+12²=13²  

But I usually take the shortcut..and instead of a²+12²=13²

I subtract 12² from 13² (it's the same thing)

After you subtract 13²-12²=a²...you find the square root of 13²-12²

so the answer is LaTeX: a=\sqrt{13^2-12^2}

a= square root of 13²-12²

Find the area of the triangle whose vertices are (0,4) , (0,0) and (2,0) by plotting them on graph
Luden [163]

Refer to the attached image. Since one vertex is the origin and the other two lay on the coordinate axes, the triangle is a right triangle. This means that, if we consider AB to the be base, AC is his height, and vice versa.

Anyway, it means that the area is given by

A = \cfrac{\overline{AB}\times\overline{AC}}{2}

Since AB is a horizontal segment and AC is a vertical segment, their length is given by the absolute difference of the non-constant coordinate: points A and B share the same x coordinate, so we subtract the y coordinates:

\overline{AB} = |2-0| = |2| = 2

The opposite goes for AC: points A and C share the same y coordinate, so we subtract the x coordinates:

\overline{AC} = |4-0| = |4| = 4

So, the area is

A = \cfrac{2\times 4}{2} = 4
