THEOREM:
- <u>Pythagorean theorem</u>:— In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides.
ANSWER:
By pythagorean property,
- x² = 12² + 9²
- x² = 144 + 81
- x² = 225
- x = √225
- x = 15 units.
So, <u>Correct choice</u> - [C] 15 units.
We have that an inverse variation in a function is given by:

We must find the value of the constant k.
To do this, we substitute the values of x1 = 12, y1 = 15.
We have then:

Clearing k we have:

Substituting the value of k we have that the inverse variation is:

For y2 = 3 we have:

Clearing x2 we have:
