A right triangle has one leg with a length of 48 and a hypotenuse with a length of 80. What is the length of the other leg?

Using the pythagorean theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2), this would make the equation 48^2 + b^2 = 80^2 (the hypotenuse must be plugged in as the "c" value).

Once you solve, this becomes 2304 + b^2 = 6400.

Subtract 2304 from 6400 and you get b^2 = 4096.

Take the square root of 4096 and you get b=64.

The answer is 64.

Answer:

<h2>The answer is option C</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

$3( { \tan }^{2} \theta - { \sec }^{2} \theta)$

Using trigonometric identities

That's

$1 + { \tan }^{2} \theta = { \sec }^{2} \theta$

Rewrite the expression

That's

$3({ \tan }^{2} \theta - (1 + { \tan }^{2} \theta)) \\$

Simplify

We have

$3({ \tan }^{2} \theta - 1 - { \tan }^{2} \theta) \\ 3({ \tan }^{2} \theta - { \tan }^{2} \theta - 1)$

So we have

3( - 1)

We have the final answer as

<h2>- 3</h2>

Hope this helps you

$\huge\text{Hey there!}$

$\mathsf{-5x < 40}$

$\large\text{DIVIDE -5 to BOTH SIDES}$

$\mathsf{\dfrac{-5x}{-5}$

$\rm{CANCEL\ out: \dfrac{-5}{-5} \ because\ that \ gives\ you\ 1}$

$\rm{KEEP: \dfrac{40}{-5}\ because \ that \ gives \ you \ what \ you \ are\ comparing}\\\\\rm{to \ the \ x-value}$

$\mathsf{\dfrac{40}{-5}=\boxed{\bf -8}}$

$\mathsf{x > -8}$

$\boxed{\boxed{\large\textsf{Answer: \large \bf x }\bf > \large\textsf{\bf -8}}}\huge\checkmark$

$\boxed{\large\textsf{IT is an O(P)(E)(N)(E)(D) circle shaded to the right}}$
