Answer:

50 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

So the first step is to find the height, and to do that you know that the area of a triangle is height * base / 2 =  area. Plugging in the numbers you have, you get:

height*48/2=336

Then, this becomes

height * 24 = 336

Divide both sides by 24

height = 14

Now you can use the base and the height to find the hypotenuse using the Pythagorean Theorem: a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}

48^{2} +14^{2} =c^{2} \\2304 + 196 = c^{2}\\2500 = c^2\\50 = c\\c = 50

Therefore the length of the hypotenuse is 50 cm

Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation. If necessary, round to the nearest hundredth.
Bad White [126]

Answer:

The final answers are x = 1 OR x = -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation is x^2 -3 = -2x

Rewriting it in quadratic form as:- x^2 +2x -3 = 0.

a = 1, b = 2, c = -3.

Using Quadratic formula as follows:- x = ( -b ± √(b² -4ac) ) / (2a)

x = ( -2 ± √(4 -4*1*-3) ) / (2*1)

x = ( -2 ± √(4 +12) ) / (2)

x = ( -2 ± √(16) ) / (2)

x = ( -2 ± 4 ) / (2)

x = (-2+4) / (2) OR x = (-2-4) / (2)

x = 2/2 OR x = -6/2

x = 1 OR x = -3

Hence, final answers are x = 1 OR x = -3.
