Answer:
A. square root of a^2 + b^2 for both answers
Step-by-step explanation:
The first problem, we are given
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
What we do is solve for c.
sqrt(a^2 + b^2) = c
c = sqrt(a^2 + b^2)
For problem 2,
WE can apply the Pythagorean theorem because we have a right triangle.
The equations is
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 like the first problem
Solving gets us
sqrt(a^2 + b^2) = c
c = sqrt(a^2 + b^2)
According to me the probability is 1/4, because there are 4 possible outcomes when two coins are flipped - TT, TH, HT, HH.
<span>Also, would it matter if the coins are flipped one after other rather than together</span>
If it is a fraction like (3a-3b)/(3a+12b)
= [3(a-b)]/[3(a+4b)]
= (a-b)/(a+4b)
