Answer:

z = 6√2 = 8.49

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are to find the value of the length z.

Mathematically, using Pythagoras’s theorem we can do this.

The Pythagoras’ theorem states that the square of the length of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the length of the squares of the two other sides.

Kindly note that the hypotenuse is the side that faces the angle 90

These are the points needed to solve for z

Using Pythagoras,

z^2 = y^2 + 4^2

z^2 = y^2 + 16 •••••••(i)

x^2 + z^2 = 20^2

x^2 + z^2 = 400 •••••••••(ii)

z^2 + 16^2 = x^2. ••••••••(iii)

Substitute iii into ii

z^2 + 16^2 + z^2 = 400

2z^2 + 256 = 400

2z^2 = 400-256

2z^2 = 144

z^2 = 72

z = √(72)

z = 6√2

Answer:

The answer is B. m∠ POS + m∠ POR = 180

step-by-step explanation:

Because if you already know that m∠POQ equals 90 because it is a right angle

Then all you have to do is take 90 from 180 which is 90 then divide 90 by two which is 45

now you have the measurement for the two acute angles 45

which makes m∠POS = 45 and m∠QOR =45

NOW YOU HAVE TO ADD 90 AND  45 AND 45 ALL TOGETHER THEN YOU WILL HAVE 180

bezimeni [28]
Distribute first so
2x-x+2=2-x+1
Combine like terms so
x+2=3-x
Get terms on the same side so
2x+2=3
Subtract 2
2x=1
Divide
X=1/2 or .5
