Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Factorize using square root method.

x² - 2x + 2 = (x-a)² + b

x² -2x + 1 + 1 = (x-a)²+b

(x² - 2*x*1 + 1²) + 1 = (x -a)²+ b       {Compare with a²- 2ab+b² which is (a - b)²}

(x - 1)² + 1 = (x - a)² + b

a = 1 and b = 1

​ △BCD ​ is a right triangle. The length of the hypotenuse is 19 centimeters. The length of one of the legs is 13 centimeters.
zheka24 [161]
<span>here we can use Pythogoras' theorem.
in right angled triangles the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other 2 sides.
hypotenuse is 19 cm. One side is 13 cm and we need to find the length of the third side.
                                                                         
19</span>²<span> = 13</span>²<span> + X</span>²<span> 
X - length of the third side
                                                           
361 = 169 + X</span>²<span> 
X</span>²<span> = 361 - 169
                                                                     
X</span>²<span> = 192
                                                                             
X = 13.85 the length of third side rounded off to the nearest tenth is 13.9 cm</span>
