Answer:

0.9 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

c is the length of the side. a is the altitude. b is the base. a is the vertical bisector if the base, so the base is 0.5 cm.

c² = a² + b²

1² = a² + 0.5²

1² - 0.5² = a²

1 - 0.25 = a²

√0.75 = a

0.8660254 = a

round to 0.9

\frac{ 3^{4} }{ 3^{2} }   First, take about the 3^{4} and 3^{2}
\frac{3 x 3 x 3 x 3}{3 x 3}   You can cancel out the two 3's on the bottom using two of the threes from the numerator
\frac{3 x 3}{1}   Simplify the fraction

Suppose you are putting up a tent for a camping trip.
SSSSS [86.1K]

The length of the rope needed is 15 feet

Given the following parameters;

  • Height of the pole = 9 foot
  • The distance from the <u>rope away from the base </u>of the pole is 12 feet

Required

  • Length of the rope.

To get the length of the rope, you will use the pythagoras theorem expressed as:

  • c² = a² + b²

Substituting the given parameters:

c² = 9² + 12²

c² =81 + 144

c² = 225

c = √225

c = 15 feet

Therefore the length of the rope needed is 15 feet

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 10cm long. The longer leg is 2cm longer than the shorter leg. Find the side lengths of the
Crazy boy [7]
We need Pythagoras theorem here
a^2+b^2 = c^2
a, b =  legs of a right-triangle
c = length of hypotenuse

Let S=shorter leg, in cm, then longer leg=S+2 cm
use Pythagoras theorem
S^2+(S+2)^2 = (10 cm)^2
expand (S+2)^2
S^2 +   S^2+4S+4  = 100 cm^2   [collect terms and isolate]
2S^2+4S =  100-4 = 96 cm^2
simplify and form standard form of quadratic
S^2+2S-48=0
Solve by factoring
(S+8)(S-6) = 0   means (S+8)=0, S=-8
or                                   (S-6)=0, S=6
Reject nengative root, so
Shorter leg = 6 cm
Longer leg = 6+2 cm = 8 cm
Hypotenuse (given) = 10 cm
