 The formula to find a hypotenuse is as follows:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Write out your triangle, labeling one part as 18, and another as 80. Connect a line between the end points of each line, and give a letter to a value. For my example, I will use 18 as a and 80 as b. 
18^2 + 80^2 = c^2
Solve this by squaring these numbers.
324 + 6400 = c^2
Add these numbers
6724 = c^2
 Then, finally, deprive the square root from 6724 and c^2
82 = c
 Since c is you hypotenuse, 82 centimeters is your answer. This checks out because your hypotenuse must be the largest number of the three, and if not, you did something wrong. However, this all checks out, meaning your hypotenuse is 82 centimeters. Hope this helped!

a^2 + b^2 = c^2\\\\18^2 + 80^2 = c^2\\\\6724 = c^2\\\\c = \sqrt{6724}\\\\ c = 82

The hypotenuse is 82 centimeters long.

Help please! Could you explain it too?
Anettt [7]

Answer:

a) not proportional

b) proportional; k = -\frac{3}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

a) for any proportional equation, the line must pass through the origin. The equation in a) is y = 4x + 1, and the '+1' is the y-intercept. This means that the line does not pass through the origin, so x and y cannot increase by the same amount (i.e. they are not proportional).

Another way to determine this is is to use the y = kx base. If you have an equation that fits that it's likely proportional.

Here, if the equation was only y = 4x then it'd be proportional because u can see that k = 4. This is not the equation though, and the 4x + 1 doesn't fit to the y = kx formula so it can't be proportional.

b) straight away you can see that there's no 'c' term (y = mx + c) which means the y-intercept is 0, so the line passes through the origin. While this does not immediately mean the line is proportional, you can make sure that it is by checking it fits with the y = kx equation.

y = -(3/5)x fits with y = kx, with k being -3/5
