Answer:
3 1/4, 3 3/8, 6 5/8, 6 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
ABC=DBC
(This will probably be a way more complex explanation than you need but it’s what I did.)
Okay so you know B=B because they’re both right angles. You know A=D because of the isosceles triangle theorem- if two sides of a triangle are congruent, then the angles opposite those sides are congruent. That leaves C=C. If B=B and A=D and all triangles add up to 180 degrees, C and C need to be the same.
Answer:
If the suspect goes to prison, then he was found guilty.
Step-by-step explanation:
Means the same thing. If you guilty, you get the jail time. Same thing as before. The only other one it could be is the first one. But you could argue that one.
Since we have two possible pieces of information and 2 items to solve for, we know this is a system of equations.
Our first piece of information is that our shorter leg (s) is 2 feet shorter than our longer leg (l). This can be written as s=l-2.
Our second piece of information is that using the Pythagorean theorem that our shorter leg squared plus our longer leg squared is equal to our hypotenuse squared. This can be represented by s^2+l^2=10^2. Now we can solve.
We have already isolated for s in our first equation, so we can substitute l-2 in.
(l-2)^2+l^2=10^2
l-2+l=10
2l-2=10
2l=12
l=6
Now we can substitute in for s in our simpler equation
s=6-2
s=4
We now know that using our knowledge of systems of equations, the side lengths of this right angle triangle are 6 and 4.
