Answer:

Solving the equation x^2-8x+41=0 using quadratic formula we get x=4+5i \ or \ x=4-5i

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the equation x^2-8x+41=0 using quadratic formula.

The quadratic formula is:

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

where a=1, b=-8 and c=41

Putting values in formula and finding x

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$\\$x=\frac{-(-8)\pm\sqrt{(-8)^2-4(1)(41)}}{2(1)}$\\$x=\frac{8\pm\sqrt{64-164}}{2}$\\$x=\frac{8\pm\sqrt{-100}}{2}$\\We \ know \ \sqrt{-1}=i\\x=\frac{8\pm10i}{2}\\x=\frac{8+10i}{2} \ or \ x=\frac{8-10i}{2}\\x=4+5i \ or \ x=4-5i

So, Solving the equation x^2-8x+41=0 using quadratic formula we get x=4+5i \ or \ x=4-5i

Explain how the distance formula can prove Pythagoras' Theorem. In your
Paul [167]

Answer:

Given a triangle ABC, Pythagoras' Theorem shows that:

c^2=a^2+b^2

Thus,

c = \sqrt{a^2+b^2}

The distance formula, gives an equivalent expression based on two points at the end of the hypotenuse for a triangle.

d^2 = (x_{2} -x_{1})^2 + (y_{2} -y_{1})^2

d = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2 +  (y_{2} -y_{1})^2 }

Therefore when given the hypotenuse with endpoints at

(x_{1}, y_{1})  and {(x_{2}, y_{2})

We know that the third point of the right triangle will be at

(x_{2}, y_{1})

and that the two side lengths will be defined by the absolute values of:

(x_{2} - x_{1}) = a

(y_{2} - y_{1}) = b
