Answer:

10 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

It becomes a right-angled triangle with height of 8feet and base of 6feet.

Using Pythagoras theorem:

What is the solutions of the equation 2 (x+2) ^2-4=28
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

x = 2            x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

2 (x+2) ^2-4=28

Add 4 to each side

2 (x+2) ^2-4+4=28+4

2 (x+2) ^2= 32

Divide by 2

2/2 (x+2) ^2=32/2

(x+2)^2 = 16

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x+2)^2) =±sqrt( 16)

x+2 = ±4

Subtract 2 from each side

x+2-2 = -2±4

x = -2±4

x = -2+4      and x = -2-4

x = 2            x = -6
