Answer:

5√7

Step-by-step explanation:

c is the hypotenuse NOT the leg (I just took a quiz and had the exact same question). Therefore:

16^2 - 9^2  = a^2

256 - 81 = a^2

175 = a^2

a^2 = 5√7

If c is the hypotenuse and b is the leg, then the third side (a):
a= \sqrt{c^2-b^2}= \sqrt{16^2-9^2}= \sqrt{256-81}= \sqrt{175}=5 \sqrt{7}

If b and с are legs, then hypotenuse (a):
a= \sqrt{b^2+c^2}= \sqrt{9^2+16^2}= \sqrt{81+256}= \sqrt{337}

In triangle ABC, angle A is 75o and angle B is 20o. Select the triangle that is similar to triangle ABC.
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

A. \triangleDEF where \angle D = 75^{\circ} and \angle E = 20^{\circ}.

Step-by-step explanation:

At first we must keep in mind that two triangles are similar when they have same angle configuration, that is, each pair of angles is congruent. If \triangleABC and \triangleDEF, then \angle A \equiv \angle D and \angle B \equiv \angle E. Hence, \angle D = 75^{\circ} and \angle E = 20^{\circ}.

In a nutshell, correct answer is A.

The quadratic function g(x) = ax^2 + bx + c has the complex roots (-5+9i) and (-5-9i). (you may assume that a = -1) what is the
gavmur [86]

Answer:

  • b = -10, c = -106

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Given</h3>

<u>Quadratic function </u>

  • g(x) = ax^2 + bx + c

with the roots:

  • (-5+9i) and (-5-9i)
<h3>To find </h3>
  • b and c if a = -1
<h3>Solution</h3>

<u>As we know the sum of the roots is -b/a and the product of the roots is c/a. Substituting values and solving for b and c:</u>

  • (-5 + 9i) + (-5 - 9i) = -b/-1
  • -10 = b
  • b = -10

And

  • (-5 + 9i)(-5 - 9i) = c/-1
  • (-5)² - (9i)² = -c
  • 25 - 81(-1) = -c
  • - c = 25 + 81
  • - c = 106
  • c = -106

g(x) = -x² -10x - 106
