  • Hypotenuse=H=12in
  • Perpendicular=P=7in
  • Base=B=?

Using Pythagorean theorem

\boxed{\sf B^2=H^2-P^2}

\\  \sf \longmapsto \: b =  \sqrt{ {h}^{2}  -  {p}^{2} }  \\  \\  \sf \longmapsto \: b =  \sqrt{ {12}^{2}  -   {7}^{2} }  \\  \\  \sf \longmapsto \: b =  \sqrt{100 - 49}  \\  \\  \sf \longmapsto \: b =  \sqrt{51}  \\  \\  \sf \longmapsto \: b = 7.2in

Lana71 [14]
To make it simple make them all the same fraction

6/24 to trim 4/24 to style and she wants to work for 80/24 hours for 5 days

if each appointment she wants to take 6/24 to trim and 4/24 to style then every appointment will take 10/24 of an hour.

she wants to do 80/24 so she can do 8 appointments a day if each take 10/24

8 appointments a day 5 days a week

nikitadnepr [17]
Given is <span>(x - 4⁸)

</span>Her factors are <span>(x² - 4²)² (x² + 4²)

</span>Let us prove whether her solution is correct or not.
<span>
(x² - 4²)² (x² + 4²)</span>
(x⁴ - 4⁴) (x² + 4²) ; Follow PEMDAS rule as well as exponential multiplication rule which tells that when exponents are multiplied, the exponents will be added.

By using FOIL(First, Outside, Inside, Last) Method, we can prove if Angelina's solution is correct. NOTE: Do not disregard the positive or negative.

(<u>x⁴</u> - 4⁴) (<u>x²</u> + 4²) ; For the First, multiply the first terms. They are underlined.
This gives you a partial answer: x⁶ (Exponential Law of Multiplication is applied)

(<u>x⁴</u> - 4⁴) (x² <u>+ 4²</u>) ; For the Outside, multiply the outside terms. They are underlined. This gives you an additional to the partial answer: x⁶ + 4²x⁴

<span>(x⁴ <u>- 4⁴</u>) (<u>x²</u> + 4²) ; For the Inside, multiply the inside terms. They are underlined. This gives you an additional to the partial answer: </span>x⁶ + 4²x⁴ - 4⁴x²

(x⁴ <u>- 4⁴</u>) (x² <u>+ 4²</u>) ; For the Last, multiply the last terms. They are underlined. This will give you an additional to the final answer: x⁶ + 4²x⁴ - 4⁴x² - 16⁶ = 0

Final Answer in complete sentence:
The result of multiplying the factors is x⁶ + 4²x⁴ - 4⁴x² - 16⁶ = 0 and is too far compared to (x - 4⁸) which is already a factor.
