Answer:

$4\sqrt{11}$

Step-by-step explanation:

you use the Pythagorean theorem, so the longest side is the hypotenuse and so you do 24^2 minus 20^2 to find the shortest side. you would get 176 and you square root this to get about 13.27

Which is an equation of a circle with center (2, -1) that passes through the point (3, 4)?

iren2701 [21]

Equation of circle is (x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2; where (a, b) is the center and r is the radius.
r^2 = (2 - 3)^2 + (-1 - 4)^2 = (-1)^2 + (-5)^2 = 1 + 25 = 26
Equation is (x - 2)^2 + (y + 1)^2 = 26

What is the slope of the line shown below?

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 4, 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, 9)

m = $\frac{9-2}{3+4}$ = $\frac{7}{7}$ = 1 → A

The measure of the base of a triangle is represented by 4x+3 and the height is 6x represent the area of the triangle as a polyno

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

$12x^2+9x$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the area of a triangle is $\frac{bh}{2}$ . Plugging in the given base and height values, you get $\frac{(4x+3)(6x)}{2}=\frac{24x^2+18x}{2}=12x^2+9x$ . Hope this helps!
