Pythagorean Theorem is a² + b² = c²
Answer: 4x² + 4x - 2 - 
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
You can use either synthetic or long division. I am using synthetic division:
2x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = 
| 4 10 4 -6
<u>| ↓ -6 -6 3 </u>
4 4 -2 -3 ← <em>-3 is the remainder</em>
↓ ↓ ↓
4x² +4x -2 ← <em>factored polynomial</em>
1/2 because 36 is half of 72. You could also divide the numbers by 12 and you will get 3/6 which is the same as 1/2.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Drop an altitude. Either of the two resulting right triangles with legs of length 5 and x and a hypotenuse of 10.
By the Pythagorean theorem, it follows that the answer is B.
