Answer: Choice B) {3, 5, sqrt(34)}
=====================================
Explanation:
We can only have a right triangle if and only if a^2+b^2 = c^2 is a true equation. The 'c' is the longest side, aka hypotenuse. The legs 'a' and 'b' can be in any order you want.
-----------
For choice A,
a = 2
b = 3
c = sqrt(10)
So,
a^2+b^2 = 2^2+3^2 = 4+9 = 13
but
c^2 = (sqrt(10))^2 = 10
which is not equal to 13 from above. Cross choice A off the list.
-----------
Checking choice B
a = 3
b = 5
c = sqrt(34)
Square each equation
a^2 = 3^2 = 9
b^2 = 5^2 = 25
c^2 = (sqrt(34))^2 = 34
We can see that
a^2+b^2 = 9+25 = 34
which is exactly equal to c^2 above. This confirms the answer.
-----------
Let's check choice C
a = 5, b = 8, c = 12
a^2 = 25, b^2 = 64, c^2 = 144
So,
a^2+b^2 = c^2
25+64 = 144
89 = 144
which is a false equation allowing us to cross choice C off the list.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given an equation 
. We are asked to solve our given equation.
First of all, we will add 3 to both sides of our equation.
Now, we will divide both sides of our equation by 4.
Upon rounding our answer to nearest thousandth (3 places after decimal) we will get,
Therefore, the solution for our given equation is .
Answer:
(A) 4.03 x 10^14
Step-by-step explanation:
403,000,000,000,000
Scientific notation is of the form
a * 10 ^b
where a is a number from 1 to a number less than 10
Put the decimal in the number
403,000,000,000,000.
We need to move the decimal 14 places to the left to get the number to be between 1 and 10
4.03000000000000 so the b is 14
Since we moved it to the left b is positive
We can drop the extra zeros at the end (after the last nonzero digit)
4.03 *10^14
