Find the length of the leg of the right triangle leave your answer in simplest radical form

Mathematics
1 answer:
erastova [34]3 years ago

Answer:

a =12*sqrt(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

3.  The Pythagorean theorem states

a^2 + b^2 = c^2  where a  and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

a^2 +21^2 = 27^2

a^2 +441 =729

Subtract 441 from each side

a^2 +441-441 = 729 -441

a^2 =288

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(288)

sqrt(xy) = sqrt(x)sqrt(y)

a = sqrt(144)sqrt(2)

a =12*sqrt(2)

The slope of a vertical line is undefined, D.

If you were to try to solve use something like the rise over run method, you would end up with a 0 in the denominator. Since dividing by 0 gives you an undefined result, the slope would be undefined.

If one side of a right triangle is 12 feet long and the hypotenuse of the triangle is 7, find the length of the other side of th
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

9.74 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula for finding a hypotenuse is a^{2} + b^{2}  = c^{2}. We can rearrange that to get: c^2 - b^2 = a^2. So: 49 + b^2 = 144. We get the square root of 95, AKA around 9.74.
