Answer:
i think the answer should be 16
C. 9 square roots of 2
To answer this question, it's super important that you understand the ratio of sides for special triangles. This triangle in particular, a 45-45-90 triangle, has a ratio between the legs and hypotenuse of 1:1:
Since we are given the value of the hypotenuse, we know that the value of the two sides multiplied by
will be 18. Knowing this, we can write out an equation:
u*
= 18
u = 
<u>Multiply both sides by </u>
<u> in order to get rid of the root in the denominator:</u>
u = 
u = 
u = 9

Answer:
F) 15/8
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>A. 17/15</em>
<em>B. 8/17</em>
<em>C. 15/17</em>
<em>D. 8/15</em>
<em>E. 17/8</em>
<em>F. 15/8</em>
18^2 + 68^2 =
= 324 + 4,624
= 4,948
74^2 = 5,476
4,848 is not equal to 5,476.
Since the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two shorter sides is not equal to the square of the length of the longest side, the triangle is not a right triangle.
