Answer:

40cm

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To find the missing leg, use the Pythagorean theorem a²+ b² = c² and substitute the numbers a² + 8² = 17².

2. So a = 15 since 17²-8² = 289 - 64 =225 and the square root of 225 is 15

3. Now that all the lengths have been found. So the perimeter of the right triangle is 40cm.

Two terms of a geometric sequence are given. Find the first five terms. Please help asap
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

4, 8, 16, 32, 64

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of a geometric sequence is

a_{n} = a₁(r)^{n-1}

Given

a₇ = 256 and a₁₀ = 2048 , then

a₁ r^{6} = 256 → (1)

a₁ r^{9} = 2048 → (2)

Divide (2) by (1)

\frac{a_{1}r^{9}  }{a_{1}r^{6}  } = \frac{2048}{256}

r³ = 8 ( take the cube root of both sides )

r = \sqrt[3]{8} = 2

Substitute r = 2 into (1)

a₁ × 2^{6} = 256

a₁ × 64 = 256 ( divide both sides by 64 )

a₁ = 4

Then

a₁ = 4

a₂ = 2a₁ = 2 × 4 = 8

a₃ = 2a₂ = 2 × 8 = 16

a₄ = 2a₃ = 2 × 16 = 32

a₅ = 2a₄ = 2 × 32 = 64
