Remark

Interesting question. Thanks for posting.

The small triangle has the height as the missing side.

Part One: Givens

a = 144

b = height = ?

c = 240

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

144^2 + b^2 = 240^2

20736 + b^2 = 57600 Subtract 20736 from both sides

b^2 = 57600 - 20736

b^2 = 36864

√b^2 = √36864

b = 192

Solve for x

The relationship between the height (b) and 144 and x is

b^2 = 144 * x

36864 = 144x Divide by 144

x = 256

$\displaystyle d = 18$

General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Brackets

Left to Right

Algebra I

Coordinates (x, y)

Algebra II

Distance Formula: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

Point (21, 13)

Point (3, 13)

Step 2: Find distance d

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the distance formula to find distance d

Substitute in points [Distance Formula]: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{(3-21)^2+(13-13)^2}$
[√Radical] (Parenthesis) Subtract: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{(-18)^2+(0)^2}$
[√Radical] Evaluate exponents: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{324+0}$
[√Radical] Add: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{324}$
[√Radical] Evaluate: $\displaystyle d = 18$

URGENT 20 POINTS Select each graph that shows a function and its inverse.

Andre45 [30]

Answer: Graph first and fourth.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a function is reflected through line y=x,, we obtained an inverse function of that function.

In first graph,

The function is reflected through line y = x,

Hence, in this graph we obtained inverse functions.

In second graph,

The function is shifted horizontally,

This is why we did not get an inverse function.

In third graph,

The function is reflected through x-axis,

This is why we did not get the inverse of the function.

In fourth graph,

The function is reflected through line y = x,

Hence, in this graph we obtained inverse functions.
