The length of the longer leg of a right triangle is 4 inches more than twice the length of the shorter leg. the length of the hy
Serjik [45]

The Pythagorean's Theorem for our situation would look like this:

shortleg^2+longleg^2=hypotenuse^2

So let's call the short leg s, the long leg l and the hypotenuse h. It appears that all our measurements are based on the measurement of the short leg. The long leg is 4 more than twice the short leg, so that expression is l=2s+4; the hypotenuse measure is 6 more than twice the short leg, so that expression is h=2s+6. And the short leg is just s. Now we can rewrite our formula accordingly:

s^2+(2s+4)^2=(2s+6)^2

And of course we have to expand. Doing that will leave us with

s^2+4s^2+8s+8s+16=4s^2+12s+12s+36

Combining like terms we have

5s^2+16s+16=4s^2+24s+36

Our job now is to get everything on one side of the equals sign and solve for s

s^2-8s-20=0

That is now a second degree polynomial, a quadratic to be exact, and it can be factored several different ways. The easiest is to figure what 2 numbers add to be -8 and multiply to be -20. Those numbers would be 10 and -2. Since we are figuring out the length of the sides, AND we know that the two things in math that will never EVER be negative are time and distance/length, -2 is not an option. That means that the short side, s, measures 10. The longer side, 2s+4, measures 2(10)+4 which is 24, and the hypotenuse, 2s+6, measures 2(10)+6 which is 26. So there you go!

Roth IRA doesn't get you a tax deduction for the contributions, but the earnings grow tax free and you don't pay tax on the withdrawals after retirement. A traditional IRA gives you a tax deduction for the contributions at the time you make them, and the earnings grow tax free, but when you withdraw the money after retirement, you are taxed on it. The idea is that you are hopefully in a lower tax bracket at that point. So its only natural that Roth IRA is the best.
