Pythagorean theorem states: a^2+b^2=c^2. Where a and b are legs of a triangles. So, 12^2+15^2=c^2. 144+225=c^2. 369=c^2. c=19.21 (not a perfect square).

Hey there! :)

You have to use the Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

a = 12
12² = 12 × 12 = 144

b = 15
15² = 15 × 15 = 225

144 + 225 = 369

√369 = 19.2

The hypotenuse is 19.2

Hope this helps :)

HELP ME RN PLEASEEEE<br> [WILL GIVE BRAINLY TO CORRECT AND BEST EXPLAINED ANSWER]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf d= \sqrt{34}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the distance between two points, so the following formula is used.

$d= \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2$

Where (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the points we are finding the distance between.

We are given the points (-2, -1) and (3,2). If we match the corresponding value and variable we see that:

x₁= -2
y₁= -1
x₂= 3
y₂= 2

Substitute the values into the formula.

$d= \sqrt {(-2-3)^2+(2--1)^2$

Solve the parentheses.

-2 -3 = -5
2--1 = 2+ 1 = 3

$d= \sqrt{(-5)^2+(3)^2$

Solve the exponents.

(-5)²= -5*-5= 25
(3)²= 3*3=9

$d= \sqrt{25+9}$

Add.

$d= \sqrt{34}$

This radical cannot be simplified, so the distance between the two points is <u>√34</u> and <u>choice 3 </u> is correct.

Does anyone know the answer to this? Algebra 2

natulia [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sinθ = $\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$

If, sinθ = - $\frac{1}{2}$ and π < θ < $\frac{3\pi }{2}$

Since, sinθ is negative, angle θ will be in IIIrd quadrant.

And the measure of angle θ will be (180° + 30°)

θ = 210°

It's necessary to remember that tangent and cotangent of angle θ in quadrant III are positive.

Therefore, cos(210°) = $-\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$

tan(210°) = $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }$

csc(210°) = $-\frac{1}{2}$

sec(210°) = $-\frac{2}{\sqrt{3} }$

cot(210°) = √3
