Answer:
about 11.5 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
I know the measurement of the other leg is about 11.5 cm. I know because I used the Pythagorean theorem.
a^2+b^2=c^2.
"a" and "b" are the values of the legs of the triangle, while "c" is the measure of the hypotenuse. We know that 8cm is the measure of one of the legs, and 14 cm is a measure of the hypotenuse.
8^2+b^2=14^2 simplified: 64+b^2=196
Then, I subtracted 64 on both sides, so I would have "b" by itself.
b^2=132
Next, I found the square root of both b^2 and 132, so I would find the true value of "b."
b=11.4891252931
So, the measure of the other leg rounded to the nearest tenth is about 11.5.

Answer:
#16 = (0, -10)
#17 = (-18, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
U wouldn't use the distance formula, you would need to use the Midpoint Formula, which is, M = (x1 + x2 / 2, y1 + y2 / 2). For #16, you plug in (4, -5) for M and 8 for x1 and 0 for y1, so the equation should look like this : (4, -5) = (8 + x2 / 2, 0 + y2 / 2). Then separate the equation to make it easier: 4 = 8 + x2 / 2 and the second equation : -5 = 0 + y2 / 2. So let's do the 1st equation, the first step would be to multiply the 2 to both sides. So the equation should look like this, 8 = 8 + x. Then subtract the 8 from both sides and you get 0 as your x. Now moving on to the 2nd equation, you multiply the 2 to both sides, and you get, -10 = 0 + y, as your equation, but since 0 won't affect it, -10 should be your y. Then just use these steps to solve #17, and your answer should be (-18, -3).
