In trigonometry, the right triangle is considered a special triangle because there are derived equations solely for this type. It is really convenient when dealing right triangle problems because it is more simplified courtesy of the Pythagorean theorems. It is derived that the square of the hypotenuse (longest side of the triangle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two legs. In equation, that would be c² = a² + b². For this activity, all you have to do is find the sum of the squares in columns a and b. Then, see if this is equal to the square of the values in column c. Let's calculate each row:

Row 1:
3² + 4² ? 5²
25 ? 25
25 = 25

Row 2:
5² + 12² ? 13²
169 ? 169
169 = 169

Row 3:
9² + 12² ? 15²
225 ? 225
225 = 225

Therefore, all of the given values conform to a² + b² = c².

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line defined by the equation y = 3x + 6 and goes through the point (3,

saw5 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope. The slope of the given line is 3. The easy way to do this, the one that uses our logical brains as opposed to our mathematical brain, tells us that since there is only one choice that has a given slope of 3, that is the one that we want. The second choice down is the only one that has a slope of 3.

Mathematically,

$y-2=3(x-3)$ and
