So, we know that a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Right? That is called the Pythagorean Theorem.
In this case. We can say that 39 is a, 40 is b, and x is c.
NOTE: It doesn't really matter whether 39 is a or b. a & b are just the two legs of the right triangle.
So, if we say that 39 is a, 40 is b, and x is c. We can plug it into the Pythagorean Theorem.
39^2 + 40^2 = x^2
I'll let you take it from there.

This is the part missing:
<span>What is the height of the plane to the nearest meter?
Answer: 559 m.
Explanation:
1) The horizontal distance between the plane and tha atoll makes a right triangle with the height, with the depression angle between the two legs.
2) Therefore, you can use the tangent trigonometric ratio:
tan(10°) = opposite-leg / adyacent-leg = height / horizontal distance
⇒ height = horizontal distance × tan (10°)
⇒ height = 3,172 m × tan(10°) = 559.31 m, which rounded to the nearest m is 559

If you're trying to solve for y
-2y = 8
Divide -2 to both sides
Cancel out the -2 on the left, Divide the -2 to the 8 on the right so
y = -4
Answer:
91
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean is calculated as
mean = 
let x be his test score of his last test , then
= 85 ( multiply both sides by 7 )
504 + x = 595 ( subtract 504 from both sides )
x = 91
