Find the value of x in a triangle . If the hypotenuse of the triangle is 10 , the opposite is x+2 and the adjacent is x.​
Sauron [17]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides , that is

x² + (x + 2)² = 10² ← expand parenthesis on left side and simplify

x² + x² + 4x + 4 = 100 ( subtract 100 from both sides )

2x² + 4x - 96 = 0 ( divide through by 2 )

x² + 2x - 48 = 0

(x + 8)(x - 6) = 0 ← in factored form

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = - 8

x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6

however, x > 0 , then x = 6

Subtract -5x^2 - 3 from -x - 5
Margarita [4]
      -x-5
  -  -5x^2 - 3

or

(-x-5) - (-5x^2 - 3)

First, distribute the -. So then it becomes

-x - 5 + 5x^2 + 3

Since you can't add 5x^2 to -x. You can only combine -5 and 3.
Thus it becomes
 - x + 5x^2 -2

However, you order in exponents so

5x^2 - x - 2

would be the correct answer.
