Show work to triangles 2 and 3 explaining why they are right triangles

Mathematics
1 answer:
olganol [36]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for a triangle to be a right triangle, it has to fit into Pythagorean's Theorem:

a^2+b^2=c^2 where c is the hypotenuse.

We need to figure out which is the longest side in each of those triangles and that is the hypotenuse.

In the first set, the sqrt of 443 is 21.04, but that is not the longest side; 24 is. So the Theorem formula for that is:

\sqrt{443}^2+17^2=24^2 which gives us

443 + 289 = 576, but 732 does not equal 576, so that one is not right.

In the second set, the sqrt of 725 is the longest side, so that formula is:

\sqrt{725}^2=14^2+23^2 which gives us

725 = 196 + 529, and 725 does equal 725, so that one is right.

In the third set, the sqrt of 890 is the longest side, so:

\sqrt{890}^2=19^2+23^2, which gives us

890 = 361 + 529, and 890 = 890, so that is a right triangle as well. That's how you know those are right, compared to the first one that is not.

How can undefinable terms be used to create precise mathematical definitions?
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

This is done by stating descriptions of these terms.

Step-by-step explanation:

Undefinable terms are terms with no formal definitions. Formal definitions are obtained when specific words are used to define a term. In mathematics, specifically, Geometry words like line, point, and plane have no definite definition, So descriptions are used to identify them.

For example, in describing a point, we note that a point has no dimensions, it is usually denoted with a capital letter, and it indicates a position. Also in a coordinate plane, it is denoted with descriptions such as  (u,v). Corresponding descriptions are given of other undefinable terms.

Sedbober [7]
Y = 7^2
y = 5^2
y = 3^2

if wide is the greatest and narrow means smallest then i hope its right

Ur Welcome and if its wrong plz let me know and i will fix it,

Select the correct solution set. x + 17 ≤ -3
lions [1.4K]
Since it’s adding you are gonna do the inverse operation which is subtract so subtract 17 from both sides. You will then get x is less or equal to -20 then u divide both by one
