[Right Triangles Only] Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

  • a is a leg
  • b is another leg
  • c is the hypotenuse<u> </u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify variables</em>

Leg <em>a</em> = <em>a</em>

Leg <em>b</em> = 12

Hypotenuse <em>c</em> = 20

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>a</u></em>

  1. Substitute in variables [Pythagorean Theorem]:                                            a² + 12² = 20²
  2. Evaluate exponents:                                                                                         a² + 144 = 400
  3. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Isolate <em>a</em> term:                                           a² = 256
  4. [Equality Property] Square root both sides:                                                    a = 16

A plane flying horizontally at an altitude of 3 miles and a speed of 500 mi/h passes directly over a radar station. Find the rat
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

The rate at which the distance from the plane to the station is increasing is 331 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the rate at which the distance from the plane to the station is increasing by imaging the formation of a right triangle with the following dimensions:

a: is one side of the triangle = altitude of the plane = 3 miles

b: is the other side of the triangle = the distance traveled by the plane when it is 4 miles away from the station and an altitude of 3 miles

h: is the hypotenuse of the triangle = distance between the plane and the station = 4 miles                    

First, we need to find b:    

a^{2} + b^{2} = h^{2}   (1)    

b = \sqrt{h^{2} - a^{2}} = \sqrt{(4 mi)^{2} - (3 mi)^{2}} = \sqrt{7} miles

Now, to find the rate we need to find the derivative of equation (1) with respect to time:

\frac{d}{dt}(a^{2}) + \frac{d}{dt}(b^{2}) = \frac{d}{dt}(h^{2})

2a\frac{da}{dt} + 2b\frac{db}{dt} = 2h\frac{dh}{dt}

Since "da/dt" is constant (the altitude of the plane does not change with time), we have:  

0 + 2b\frac{db}{dt} = 2h\frac{dh}{dt}

And knowing that the plane is moving at a speed of 500 mi/h (db/dt):

\sqrt{7} mi*500 mi/h = 4 mi*\frac{dh}{dt}

\frac{dh}{dt} = \frac{\sqrt{7} mi*500 mi/h}{4 mi} = 331 mi/h  

Therefore, the rate at which the distance from the plane to the station is increasing is 331 miles per hour.

I hope it helps you!

For the triangles to be congruent by hl, what must be the value of x? 8 9 17 34
lora16 [44]

Using equations we know that the value of x needs to be (E) 4 to make HL congruent to AC.

<h3>What are equations?</h3>

A mathematical equation is a formula that uses the equals sign to represent the equality of two expressions.

The point-slope form, standard form, and slope-intercept form are the three main types of linear equations.

So, HL is a hypotenuse that will be congruent to the hypotenuse AC.

We know that HL is 3x + 3.

Ac is 15.

Then the equation will be:

3x + 3 = 15

Now, solve the equation to get x as follows:

3x + 3 = 15

3x = 15 - 3

3x = 12

x = 12/3

x = 4

Therefore, the value of x needs to be (E) 4 to make HL congruent to AC.
