Right Triangles and the Pythagorean Theorem
The Pythagorean Theorem, a2+b2=c2, a 2 + b 2 = c 2 , can be used to find the length of any side of a right triangle.
The side opposite the right angle is called the hypotenuse (side c in the figure).
Answer:
1400
Step-by-step explanation:
It is closer to 1400 than 1300
Write x-4 instead of y.
x²+(x-4)²=40
x²+x²-8x+16=40
2x²-8x-24=0
x²-4x-12=0
(x-6)(x+2)=0
x=6 or x=-2
for x=6, y=6-4 = 2
for x=-2, y=-2-4 = -6
