<u>Trigonometry</u>

[Right Triangles Only] Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

  • a is a leg
  • b is another leg
  • c is the hypotenuse<u> </u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify variables</em>

<em>a</em> = <em>a</em>

<em>b</em> = 8

<em>c</em> = 10

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>a</u></em>

  1. Substitute in variables [Pythagorean Theorem]:                                            a² + 8² = 10²
  2. Evaluate exponents:                                                                                         a² + 64 = 100
  3. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 64 on both sides:                      a² = 36
  4. [Equality Property] Square root both sides:                                                    a = 6

kvasek [131]

Answer:

18=6b, b=3

Because Mary has 6 times as much as Carlos does, we put the x with 6. 18 is the number that 6x equals. 6*3=18

A) if x=4 evaluate the perimeter of the blanket. Don’t forget to include the measurement in your final answer.
Tanzania [10]
Formula for perimeter of a rectangle:  P = 2W + 2L

Here, P = 2(x-3 ) cm + 2(3x+7) cm = 2x - 6 + 6x + 14   (cm)

Combine like terms:  8x + 8   cm (simplest form)  This is the perimeter.

Now let x = 4:  P(x=4) = 8(4) + 8   cm   = 40 cm

Polynomial help! 40 pts, please show all work for question 49 part a and b
hoa [83]

Answer:

4x^2 +84x+440

840 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the picture and frame is x+ 22+x= 2x+22

The width of the picture and frame is x +20+x = 2x+20

Area is length times width

A = (2x+22) *(2x+20)

We can FOIL to find the area

first 2x*2x = 4x^2

outer 2x*20 =40x

inner 2x*22 = 44x

last = 22*20 = 440

Add these together

4x^2 +40x+44x+440

4x^2 +84x+440

b.  x=4

4x^2 +84x+440

4(4)^2 +84(4) +440

4*16 +336+440

64+776

840
