The radius can be found with the Pythagorean theorem. Assuming r is the radius, 14²+r²=17². Multiply it out to 196+r²=289. Subtract 196 from both sides and you're left with r²=93. So, r=√93, or about 9.6 to the nearest tenth.

Since the radius of that circle is side AB of the triangle, and the triangle is a right triangle, we can use pythagorean theorem. A (squared) + B (squared) = C (squared. We have one of the legs and the hypotenuse, so we just have to solve for the other leg. 17 squared - 14 squared is 93. The square root of 93 is 9.6. So the radius would be 9.6.

An open box is to be made from a square piece of cardboard measuring 15 inches on a side by cutting a square from each corner an
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Dimensions are;

2.5 inches height

Base: 10 inches by 10 inches

Max volume; 250 Sq.in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let each side of the square that's cut-off from each corner be represented by x.

This means that the base of the box will be of dimension of the side 15−2x while the height of the box will be x.

Thus;

Volume of box is:

V = (15 − 2x)(15 − 2x)x

V = (15 − 2x)²x

V = (4x² - 60x + 225)x

V = 4x³ - 60x² + 225x

Let's differentiate with respect to x to get;

dV/dx = 12x² - 120x + 225

Maximum value of x is at dV/dx = 0

12x² - 120x + 225 = 0

Using quadratic formula, we arrive at;

x = 2.5 or 7.5

Now, let's find the second derivative of the volume;

d²V/dx² = 24x - 120

Putting x = 2.5 gives;

d²V/dx² = 24(2.5) - 120

d²V/dx² = -60

Thus, V is maximum at x = 2.5, since d²V/dx² is negative

At x = 7.5;

d²V/dx² = 24(7.5) - 120

d²V/dx² = 60

Thus, V is minimum at x = 7.5, since d²V/dx² is negative

Thus,we will use x = 2.5

Maximum volume; V = (15 − 2(2.5))(15 − 2(2.5))(2.5)

V = 10 × 10 × 2.5

V = 250 Sq.inches

Dimensions are;

(15 − 2x) = 15 - 2(2.5) = 10 inches

(15 − 2x) = 15 - 2(2.5) = 10 inches

x = 2.5 inches
