14.87

Step-by-step explanation:

use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2+b^2=c^2

C being the longest side of the triangle

14^2+5^2=C^2

196+25=C^2

221=C^

find the square root of 221

C=14.866

rounded to nearest tenth

C=14.87

Answer:

$\large\boxed{h=\dfrac{\sqrt{703}}{2}ft\approx13.26ft}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the picture.

Use the Pythagorean theorem:

$leg^2+leg^2=hypotenuse^2$

We have:

$leg=\dfrac{9}{2}ft\\\\hypotenuse=14ft\\\\leg=h$

Substitute:

$\left(\dfrac{9}{2}\right)^2+h^2=14^2$

$\dfrac{81}{4}+h^2=196$ multiply both sides by 4

$81+4h^2=784$ subtract 81 from both sides

$4h^2=703$ divide both sides by 4

$h^2=\dfrac{703}{4}\to h=\sqrt{\dfrac{703}{4}}\\\\h=\dfrac{\sqrt{703}}{\sqrt4}\\\\h=\dfrac{\sqrt{703}}{2}\\\\h\approx13.26$

I need the answer to a and b

erica [24]

Answer:

a. x = 7

b. x = 36/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Points to remember

The ratio of of corresponding sides of similar triangles are equal.

a). To find the value of x

From the figure 1 we get two similar triangles, ΔABC and ADE

We can write,

AB/AD = AC/AE

3/6 = x/(x + 7)

3(x + 7) = 6 * x

3x + 21 = 6x

6x - 3x = 21

3x = 21

x = 21/3 = 7

b). To find the value of x

From the figure b we get

ΔABC ~ ΔEDF

AB/DE = BC/DF

4/5 = x/9

x = (4 * 9)/5 = 36/5
