Pythagorean Theorem to find the missing the leg, if the hypotenuse is 12 inches and the other leg is 7 inches

Mathematics
1 answer:
madreJ [45]3 years ago

Answer:

Adjacent = 9.75 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Hypothenus = 12 inches

Opposite = 7 inches

To find the other leg i.e adjacent, we would use Pythagorean' theorem given by the formula;

Hypothenus² = opposite² + adjacent²

Substituting into the formula, we have;

12² = 7² + adjacent²

144 = 49 + adjacent²

Adjacent² = 144 - 49

Adjacent² = 95

Taking the square root of both sides, we have;

Adjacent = 9.75 inches.

Therefore, the other leg is 9.75 inches.

Slope of 0 and passes through (7, 4)
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you require the equation of the line.

A line with a slope of zero is a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis, with equation

y = c

where c is the value of the y- coordinates the line passes through

The line passes through (7, 4 ) with y- coordinate 4, thus

y = 4 ← equation of line

How do you find the vertex if the equation is given ingiven in factored form?
lidiya [134]
If the equation is given in factored form and the roots are real, then you can identify the x-coordinate of the vertex by averaging the 2 root values.  For example, if the roots are -2 and 5, the x-coord. of the vertex is (-2+5)/2, or 3/2.

Once you have this x value, subst. the value into the given equation to calculate y.  Then write the vertex as (x,y).
