Please help I don't understand Pythagorean theorem

Mathematics
1 answer:
Karolina [17]3 years ago
5 0
So the Pythagorean Theorem is a²+b²=c² pretty much all you do is plug in what you know. So for number 3 you would plug in the numbers that you know into the formula. 
20²+b²=25²
BD isn't needed in the formula because it's not apart of the legnth we are looking at so you dont need to worry about that. 
Now do what the formula says.. 
400+b²=625
then you would subtract
625-400= 225
and "un-square" the answer by finding the square root 
√225 = 15 
AB= 15
you can always check your answer 
20²+15²=25²
400+225=625

2,76<br> 5. Rationalize the denominator of the following: 2 root 6 divided by root 2 + root 3
rewona [7]

Answer:

6 √2 -4 √3

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to rationalize the denominator of the following surdic fraction;

2√6/(√2 + √3)

To rationalize this, we have to multiply the numerator and the denominator by the conjugate of the denominator

The conjugate of the denominator is √2 - √3

So, we have the rationalization as follows;

2 √6(√2-√3)/(√2 + √3)(√2-√3)

Thus, we have

(4√3-6 √2)/(-1)

= 6 √2 -4 √3

1. In algebra, like terms are terms that have the same variables and powers.

2. What is combining like terms? We call terms "like terms" if they have the same variable part.

3. Polynomials form a system similar to the system of integers, in that polynomials are closed under the operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication. CLOSURE: Polynomials will be closed under an operation if the operation produces another polynomial. ... Polynomials are closed under subtraction.

Hope this helps

Which best describes the range of the function f(x)=2/3(6)^x after it's been reflected over the x-axis
Norma-Jean [14]

The function 6^x is an exponential with base greater than 1. So, its range is (0,\infty), with 0 being the horizontal asymptote as x \to -\infty.

If you multiply the function by \frac{2}{3}, the range remains the same.

If you reflect it over the x-axis, you're changing the sign of the function. So, the new range is

(-\infty,0)
