Answer:
I. AC = 15 cm
II. h = 7.4 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
I. Determination of AC
AB = 9 cm
BC = 12 cm
AC =?
The length AC can be obtained by using pythagoras theory as illustrated below:
AC² = AB² + BC²
AC² = 9² + 12²
AC² = 81 + 144
AC² = 225
Take the square root of both side
AC = √225
AC = 15 cm
II. Determination of the height.
AB = 9 cm
AD = 5.1 cm
BD = h =?
The height of the triangle can be obtained by using pythagoras theory as illustrated below:
AB² = AD² + BD²
9² = 5.1² + h²
81 = 26.01 + h²
Collect like terms
h² = 81 – 26.01
h² = 54.99
Take the square root of
h = √54.99
h = 7.4 cm
Answer:
0.9 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The sides of right triangles follow the Pythagorean Theorem:
a² + b² = c²
"a" and "b" are the two shorter sides and "c" is the hypotenuse, the longest side.
Let's plug in what we know.
a² + b² = c²
(1.2)² + b² = (1.5)²
Let's solve the exponents.
1.44 + b² = 2.25
Subtract 1.44 from both sides.
b² = 0.81
Take the square root of both sides.
√b² = √0.81
b = 0.9
The second side will be 0.9 inches.
