Answer:

x = 15.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2  where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

6^2 + x^2 = 17^2

36+ x^2 = 289

x^2 = 289-36

x^2 =253

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt( 253)

x = 15.90597

Rounding to the nearest tenth

x = 15.9

Answer:

f(9.5) = 558.02.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because it is an exponential function, it can be written: y = (a)(b)^x

Now substitute in the two known points:

72 = (a)(b)^7.5 and

2 = (a)(b)^4 : => since 2 = (a)(b)^2 divide the left side by 2 and the right by (a)(b)^2

72/2 =[(a)(b)^7.5]/[(a)(b)^4]: => the (a) cancels out and b becomes b^(7.5–4)

36 = b^3.5: => To isolate b take the 3.5 root of both sides

{3.5 root}(36) = {3.5 root}(b^3.5)

2.783927 = b

Now to solve for a

2 = (a)(b)^4 => 2 = (a)(2.783927)^4 => 2 = (a)(60.066375) divide both sides by 60.066375 0.0332965 = a

Equation: y = (0.0332965)(2.783927)^x

Now plug in 9.5 for x

(0.0332965)(2.783927)^9.5 = 558.0178525 = 558.02

There are 3 ways you can prove triangles similar without having to use all sides and angles?
bagirrra123 [75]

You can tell if they're similar if they:

1) Have two of the same angles

2) If two pairs of corresponding angles in a pair of triangles are congruent.

3) If they are the same shape

Answer:

Hello! answer: 96

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for finding area in squares: base × height

Formula for finding area in triangles: base × height ÷ by 2

8 × 8 = 64 8 × 8 ÷ 2 = 32 64 + 32 = 96 therefore the area is 96 HOPE THAT HELPS!
