The answer is 3 cm. You just have to add the sides you know (6 and 8) and subtract that from the perimeter (18)
Graph the line using the slope and y-intercept, or two points.
Slope:
−1/3
y-intercept:
(0, 5)
x y
0 5
15 0
Answer:
slope = 5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Since you were given two points, you can use the point-slope formula to find the slope. The general equation looks like this:
y₁ - y₂ = m(x₁ - x₂)
In this formula, "m" represents the slope. To find the slope, plug the values from the two points into the equation. Make sure to put the values from the same point in the variable with the same number.
Point 1: (-1, 8)
Point 2: (-7, 3)
y₁ - y₂ = m(x₁ - x₂) <----- Original formula
8 - y₂ = m(-1 - x₂) <----- Plug in "x" and "y" values from Point 1
8 - 3 = m(-1 - (-7)) <----- Plug in "x" and "y" values from Point 2
5 = m(-1 - (-7)) <----- Simplify left side
5 = m(6) <----- Simplify inside parentheses
5/6 = m <----- Divide both sides by 6

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
34.3 in, 36.3 in
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Hypothenus = 50 in
1st leg (L₁) = L
2nd leg (L₂) = 2 + L
Thus, we can obtain the value of L by using the pythagoras theory as follow:
Hypo² = L₁² + L₂²
50² = L² + (2 + L)²
2500 = L² + 4 + 4L + L²
2500 = 2L² + 4L + 4
Rearrange
2L² + 4L + 4 – 2500 = 0
2L² + 4L – 2496 = 0
Coefficient of L² (a) = 2
Coefficient of L (n) = 4
Constant (c) = –2496
L = –b ± √(b² – 4ac) / 2a
L = –4 ± √(4² – 4 × 2 × –2496) / 2 × 2
L = –4 ± √(16 + 19968) / 4
L = –4 ± √(19984) / 4
L = –4 ± 141.36 / 4
L = –4 + 141.36 / 4 or –4 – 141.36 / 4
L = 137.36/ 4 or –145.36 / 4
L = 34.3 or –36.3
Since measurement can not be negative, the value of L is 34.3 in
Finally, we shall determine the lengths of the legs of the right triangle. This is illustrated below:
1st leg (L₁) = L
L = 34.4
1st leg (L₁) = 34.3 in
2nd leg (L₂) = 2 + L
L = 34.4
2nd leg (L₂) = 2 + 34.3
2nd leg (L₂) = 36.3 in
Therefore, the lengths of the legs of the right triangle are 34.3 in, 36.3 in
