Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

How to solve:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of side BC.

Pythagorean Theorem Formula:

$A^2+B^2=C^2$

Side AB will be A, side AC will be B, and side BC will be C.

Plug in values.

$8^2+15^2 = C^2\\\\\\64 + 225 = C^2\\\\289 = C^2\\Square.root.both.sides.\\\\\sqrt{289} = C\\17 = C\\\\\\$

This means the answer is A. 17.

I hope this helps!

Find the reciprocal of 3/5

Kisachek [45]

The reciprocal of 3/5 is 5/3.

To get the reciprocal of a fraction, just turn it upside down.

A fraction has a numerator, top number, and a denominator, bottom number.
To get the reciprocal of a fraction, just swap over the numerator and denominator.

If whole numbers, to get the reciprocal of whole number, just divide the whole number by 1 to make it into a fraction, then get the reciprocal of that fraction.

I'm not sure, but I'll try

Step-by-step explanation:

(Side)^2 = (Hypotenuse)^2 - (Side)^2

(Side)^2 = (9)^2 - ( √ 65 )^2

(Side)^2 = (81) - (65)

(Side)^2 = 16

Take root of answer

Side = √16

Side = 4
