3 and -3 are said to be the square roots of 9. A square root is written with a radical symbol √ and the number or expression inside the radical symbol, below denoted a, is called the radicand. ... Negative numbers don't have real square roots since a square is either positive or 0.
Area = b * h
Area of orange = area of big square subtract by area of small square
Small square = b^2
Big square = a^2
(a^2 - b^2) = (a - b)( a + b)
Solution: (a - b) (a + b)
True.
The y-axis of the f(x) must equal to the x-axis of g(x)
The x-axis of the f(x) must equal to the y-axis of g(x)
First, add 2 to both sides. You should have 3/2x=21. Multiply both sides by 2 which gives you 3x= 42. Divide by 3 and you have x=14
Step 1
<u>First situation</u>
when a ladder is leaning against a wall
Let
x-------> the distance of the bottom of the ladder from the wall
L-------> the length of the ladder
<u>Find the length of the ladder</u>
Applying the Pythagorean Theorem
------> equation 
Step 2
<u>Second situation</u>
when the ladder will be lying flat on the ground
<u>Find the length of the ladder</u>
In this situation the length of the ladder is equal to

square both sides
------> equation 
Step 3
equate equation
and equation 

therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
the length of the ladder is
