Think of the space created with the diagonal line like a triangle. There are three sides. the longest side, the diagonal line is 32 inches. one of the other sides is 15.7 inches. Using Pythagoras theorem, we know that a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where c is the longest side of the triangle (32inches) and either a or b is 15.7inches. let's say that a is 15.7 inches. if we substitute these values we just assigned to a and c into Pythagoras' theorem above, we get 15.7^2 +b^2 = 32^2. we can simplify this to 246.49 + b^2 = 1024. We then subtract 246.49 from both sides of the equation to get b^2 = 777.51. we then square root both sides of the equation to get b = 27.88 (rounded to 2 decimal places). because b is the width of the TV, the width of the TV is 27.88 inches.
{a}^{2}  +  {b}^{2}  =  {c}^{2}  \\  {15.7}^{2}  +  {b}^{2}  =  {32}^{2}  \\ 246.49 +  {b}^{2}  = 1024 \\  {b}^{2}  = 777.51 \\ b =  \sqrt{777.51}  \\ b = 27.88

Write a two-columm proof
Nastasia [14]

Both angles 2x+6 and 96 shown are vertically opposite angles and vertically opposite angles are always equal

so 2x+6 should be equal to 96

so 2x + 6 = 96

Now we have to solve for x here and have to get x by itself on left hand side

So first get rid of +6 by doing its opposite -6 on both sides

2x + 6 -6 = 96 -6

2x = 90

Now to get x by itself we have to get rid of 2, for that divide both sides by 2

\frac{2x}{2} = \frac{90}{2}

x = 45

Hence proved that x = 45
