Answer:
16.58 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
a² + b² = c²
Think of this as a right triangle
The hypotenuse is 30, and one of the legs is 25
To find the other leg, subtract the square of the hypotenuse by the square of the given leg
30² - 25² = leg
900 - 625 = 275
Square root the answer to find the length of the missing leg
√275 = 16.583123951777
The leg is 16.58 ft.
X = -5 is the answer I believe
First you want to change the fraction into a decimal on this one the decimal is going to be .3333 now your problem looks like 8-.3333x=16 now subtract the 8 and you get -.3333x=16 now divide by -.3333 and you get -48
using pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 =c^2
a^2 +8^2 =14^2
a^2 +64 = 196
subtract 64 from each side
a^2 = 132
take the square root of each side
a^2 = sqrt (132)
a=11.48912529
a =11.5
