If the hypotenuse of a right triangle is 6 and one leg is 5 what is the other leg?

Mathematics

Recall the Pythagorean Theorem which says:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

where c is the hypotenuse and a and b are the other 2 legs. Now we just plug in numbers we already know (the hypotenuse and one leg) and solve for the unknown side:

5^2 + b^2 = 6^2

25 + b^2 = 36

b^2 = 11

b = √11

Thus the answer is C.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through (6, -1) and (3, 47)
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(47+1)/(3-6) = 48/-3 = -16

y + 1 = -16(x - 6)

y + 1 = -16x + 96

y = -16x + 95

What is the interquartile range of this set of data? 15, 19, 20, 25, 31, 38, 41
Irina18 [472]
First, you have to find the median, which is the number in the middle: 25

Then cut the data in half by the median, so your new data sets are
15,29,20
    and 
31,38,41

Now you find the median of both of those sets, which is 29 and 38.

The interquartile range is the difference between the numbers, so 38-29 = 9.

F(x)=9x^2 <br><br> g(x)= sqrt 12-x/3<br><br> (f o g)(-4)
Slav-nsk [51]

f(x)=9x^2 \\ g(x)=\frac{\sqrt{12-x}}{3} \\ So,first step is to write (fog)(-4)) =f[g(-4)] \\

Now we start from inner paranthesis ,we need to first find value of g(-4) =\frac{\sqrt{12-(-4)}}{3}\\ =\frac{\sqrt{12+4}}{3}\\&#10;=\frac{\sqrt{16}}{3}\\&#10;=\frac{4}{3}\\&#10;(fog)(-4)) =f[g(-4)] =f(\frac{4}{3}) =9(4/3)^{2} =9*(16/9) =144/9 =16
