How do you find the missing height of a triangle?

Mathematics

Answer:

Use the Pythagorean theorem

Step-by-step explanation:

The pythagorean theorem is a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2} where a is a height, b is a height, and c is the hypotenuse, which is the longest side of a triangle. For example, if the triangle has two side with lengths of three and four we would put them into the equation to get:

3^{2} +4^{2} =c^{2}

Simplify the equation to get:

9+16=c^2

Add 16 and 9 to get 25 and take the square root of both sides:

\sqrt{25} =c

The sqrt of 25 is 5. Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse, or c, is 5.

Answer:

Plug your values into the equation A=1/2bh and do the math. First multiply the base (b) by 1/2, then divide the area (A) by the product. The resulting value will be the height of your triangle.

Anni [7]
The y intercept is when x is 0. So, we have to plug in 0 for x. You can do this in many different ways as well.
7(0)-4y=8
-4y=8
Divide both sides by -4.
Y=-2
So, the Y intercept is -2 (0,-2).

Felipe is planning a party. He has $50.00 to spend on sandwiches that cost $2.50 per person, $25.00 to spend on drinks that cost
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Its B

Step-by-step explanation:

In all, he has $100 to spend since $50+$25+$25=$100. We have x people coming and he has to spend $2.50, $1.50, and $3.00 per person, respectively. The phrase "per person" indicates we must multiply, so we have to multiply each value by "x." To find out how much money he has left, we must subtract. All of this put together is 100-(2.50x+1.50x+3.00x). Add the like terms and you get 7x. Your final expression would be 100-7x, which is answer choice b.
