Answer:
√8 ==> 2 units, 2 units
√7 ==> √5 units, √2 units
√5 ==> 1 unit, 2 units
3 ==> >2 units, √5 units
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine which pair of legs that matches a hypotenuse length to create a right triangle, recall the Pythagorean theorem, which holds that, for a right angle triangle, the square of the hypotenuse (c²) = the sum of the square of each leg length (a² + b²)
Using c² = a² + b², let's find the hypotenuse length for each given pairs of leg.
=>√5 units, √2 units
c² = (√5)² + (√2)²
c² = 5 + 2 = 7
c = √7
The hypothenuse length that matches √5 units, √2 units is √7
=>√3 units, 4 units
c² = (√3)² + (4)²
c² = 3 + 16 = 19
c = √19
This given pair of legs doesn't match any given hypotenuse length
=>2 units, √5 units
c² = (2)² + (√5)²
c² = 4 + 5 = 9
c = √9 = 3
legs 2 units, and √5 units matche hypotenuse length of 3
=>2 units, 2 units
c² = 2² + 2² = 4 + 4
c² = 8
c = √8
Legs 2 units, and 2 units matche hypotenuse length of √8
=> 1 unit, 2 units
c² = 1² + 2² = 1 + 4
c² = 5
c = √5
Leg lengths, 1 unit and 2 units match the hypotenuse length, √5
Answer: w=5 , L= 2+2(5)=12
Step-by-step explanation:
L=2+2W
A= 60
LxW=60, now we will replace the L
(2+2W)(W)=60 we multiply
2w^2+2w=60
2w^2+2w-60=0 we divide by 2 the equation so we can work easier
w^2+w-30=0
find out w using the quadratic equation
we will get 2 solution,
w=5 and another solution is -6, which is not valid, as the side can not be negative
Answer: x = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
same as the last question, set them as equal and solve. here's my work:
<em>5x - 1 = 4x + 10</em>
<em>5x - 1 (+ 1) = 4x + 10 (+ 1)</em>
<em>5x = 4x + 11</em>
<em>5x (- 4x) = 4x (- 4x) + 11</em>
x = 11
