Use pythagorean theorem to solve the problem. The sum of the squares of the perpendicular legs is equal to the square of the hypotenuse. If the length of the other leg is represented by x, then the equation will be:
x² + 4² = 15²
x² + 16 = 225
x² = 225 - 16
x² = 209
x = √209

The length of the other leg is √209 units

A square and a rectangle have the same perimeter. Find the side lengths of each figure.
aliina [53]
X + 1 + X + 1 + X +1+ X +1 = 2X -3+ 2X -3+ X -1+ X -1
4x + 4 = 4x-6+2x-2
4x+4=6x-8
12=2x
6=x

Side lengths:
6-1=5
6+1=7
2(6)-3=9

Hope that helps! Stay safe!

Carlos had 7¾ cups of cheese. After making 5 pizzas, he now only has 2 cups of cheese. How much cheese did Carlos use?
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

5 3/4 cups of cheese used for the pizza

Step-by-step explanation:

7 3/4 = 31/4 cups cheese to start

Two cups of cheese remaining.  2 = 8/4 cups

31/4 cups - 8/4 cups = 23/4 cups used for the pizza.

23/4 = 5 3/4 cups of cheese used for the pizza
