Find the length of side x in simplest radical form with a rational denominator

Mathematics
1 answer:
Yakvenalex [24]3 years ago

Answer:

x = √(10)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the measure of the side marked x

what we have is an isosceles right triangle since the two acute angles of the right triangle are 45 degrees each

Hence, the other last side will measure x too

Mathematically, according to Pythagoras’; the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides

Thus;

x^2 + x^2 = (√5)^2

2x^2 = 5

x^2 = 5/2

x = √(5/2)

x = √5/√2

Rationalizing the denominator;

x = (√2 * √5)/(√2 * √2)

x = √10/2

Contact [7]

Answer:

f(12) = - 20

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate f(12), substitute x = 12 into f(x), that is

f(12) = - 2(12) + 4 = - 24 + 4 = - 20
