In this problem you will need to use the Pythagorean theorem (c^2=a^2+b^2).
The a and b represents the two edges, while c is the diagonal side and it is called the hypotenuse. Since you already know what the hypotenuse is and what one of the sides already are you just have to use the problem: c^2-a^2=b^2. Then if you plug the data you already have into the problem you will get 10^2-6^2=b^2. That then equals 100-36=b^2. Then you subtract and get b^2=64. Then you square root both sides and you get the answer b=8.
Answer: The equation parallel to the line is y=3x+8
Step-by-step explanation: Parallel lines have the same gradients, wr have a gradient for the above line which 3. The standard formula for the linear equation is y=mx+c
We have to calculate c since we have x and y.
y=mx+c
5= 3(-1)+c
c=8
The equation become y=3x+8
To find the amount of fabric for one side of the purse you will find the area of the trapezoidal space that is created. The latch is on the top, so the 2 in is not necessary information.
A = 1/2 h(b1 + b2)
1/2 x 13 x (10 + 16)
A = 169 square inches of fabric will be needed.
Out of that particular list, the only description
that applies to 2.5 is "rational".
