For rigt triangle with legs legnth a and b and hypotnuse legnth c
a^2+b^2=c^2
we are given
larger leg is 3 longer than smaller leg
hypotnuse is 6 longer than smaller
find smaller
ok so
first pick a smaller leg
lets say b is smaller
longer leg is 3 more than shorter leg
a is 3 more than b
a=3+b
and
hypontuse is 6 more than shorter
c=6+b
sub 3+b for a and 6+b for c in oroiginal equation'
a^2+b^2=c^2
(3+b)^2+b^2=(6+b)^2
9+6b+b^2+b^2=36+12b+b^2
2b^2+6b^2+9=b^2+12b+36
minus (b^2+12b+36) from both sides
b^2-6b-27=0
factor
(b-9)(b+3)=0
set equal to zero
b-9=0
b=9
b+3=0
b=-3
fasle, legnths cannot be negative
answer is shorter side=9 cm
the answer to this problem u asked the answer for is ... -19/15
Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
If we have a factor then the remainder after the division will be zero.
Answer:
9x2x1 and 6x3x1
Step-by-step explanation:
This question has multiple answers to it. A sandbox of 18 cubic feet with a height of a foot is actually quite simple. If it is confusing I would try to visualize the sandbox. Since volume is b x h x w the first thing you should do is divide 18 by 1. This would be more important if the height was more than one. Now you just have to find two other numbers that can divide 18. 9x2=18 and 6x3=18 so two possible dimensions for the sandbox are 9x2x1 and 6x3x1
Answer:
the think the answer is b.
