X^2+2x-24
Carry over the "^2" to the "2x"
So now it will be 2x^2-24
So 2 times 2 "2" times because of the "^2" (which means multiply)
So the problem will now be 2x^2-24
From there it will be 4x divided by 24
Your answer will be x=6✔️

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the unknown side of the right triangle.

Nesterboy [21]

The length of hypotenuse is 39.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Vertical side = a = 15

Horizontal side = b = 36

Hypotenuse = c

Using pythagorean theorem

$a^2+b^2=c^2\\(15)^2+(36)^2=c^2\\225+1296=c^2\\1521=c^2\\c^2=1521$

Taking square root on both sides

$\sqrt{c^2}=\sqrt{1521}\\c=39$

The length of hypotenuse is 39.
