<h3>By using Pythagoras Theorem:-</h3>

(Hypotenuse)² = (Base)²+ (Perpendicular)²

Taking, Hypotenuse As H

Base As B

Perpendicular As P

_________________________

<h3>Solving The Question</h3>

H²= B²+ P²

15 {}^{2}  = 9 {}^{2}  + p {}^{2}  \\  \\  p {}^{2}  = 15 {}^{2}  + 9 {}^{2}  \\  \\  p {}^{2}  = 225 - 81 \\  \\p {}^{2}  = 144 \\  \\  p =  \sqrt{144}  \\  \\ p = 12

<h3>Hope This Helps You ❤️</h3>

A water balloon is thrown out of a window 96 feet above the ground. The balloon is traveling downward at 16 feet per second init
gulaghasi [49]
It hits the ground at h=0

0=-16t^2-16t+96
undistribute -16
0=-16(t^2+t-6)
factor
0=-16(t-2)(t+3)
set to zero
0=t-2
2=t

t+3=0
t=-3, nope, we can't have negative time

at t=2, or 2 seconds

Use Pythagorean theorem to find the missing length. (round to tenth if necessary) IS
sertanlavr [38]

11.7

Formula: a^2 + b^2 = c^2

so substitute the numbers like this:

10^2 + 6^2 = c^2

both 10^2 and 6^2 are perfect squares:

10 × 10= 100 and 6 × 6= 36

100 + 36= c^2

add:

100 + 36 =

136 = c^2

now in order to get rid of the squared, you put it into a radical:

√136 = √c^2

note: whatever you do on one side, you do to the other

it's easier to use the calculator for this so put √136 and you're gonna get 11.66

since it's asking you to round it to the nearest tenth:

11.66 = 11.7

sorry if the explanation is kinda long ✋ i tried explaining it better in the end but i failed

Find two consecutive even integers whose sum is 14
bagirrra123 [75]
Let x = small number
Let y = large number 
Because they are consecutive even numbers,they must have a difference of 2:
y-x=2
y=2+x

Eqn 1: x+(2+x)=14

Eqn 2: x(2+x)=48

2x+2=14
2x=12
x=6

This means y must be 8 

so your two numbers are 6 and 8
