Answer:
One leg - 15 inches
Second leg - 36 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
One leg - x inches.
Second leg - (x + 21) inches.
Hypotenuse - 39 inches.
Using Pythagorean theorem
x² + (x + 21)² = 39²
x² + x² + 2*21x + 21² = 39²
2x² + 42x - 39² + 21² = 0
2x² + 42x - 1080 = 0
x² + 21x - 540 = 0
(x - 15)(x + 36) = 0
x = 15, x = - 36
We can use only positive value.
One leg - x inches = 15 inches
Second leg - (x + 21) inches = 15+21=36 inches.
Answer:
if its an isosceles triangle, and both sides are congruent (of same length), they are hypotenuse.
thus, hypotenuse = 3√2 or 4.24 inches
True it is possible to built a triangle with 3.3 and 9. Two long we sides would be 9 and the bottom side would be 3
Answer:
10.3125 (NOT ROUNDED)
Step-by-step explanation:
1. I changed it to decimals. 1/4 can easily be changed into a decimal.
2. I set 1/4 = x/100. Then cross multiplied. That would give you 4x = 100.
3. Now you would simplify that. x would be 25. So its 25/100 wich then turns to .25.
4. Now you are going to replace them so it would be 1.25 and 8.25.
5. To find out how much milk chocolate there was you would multiply 1.25 and 8.25.
6. That's your final answer
