The sides of a right triangle can always be expressed as:
h^2=x^2+y^2, where h is the length of the hypotenuse and x and y are the side lengths.
If we are to assume that "a" is a side length then 17 or "c" must be the hypotenuse so:
17^2=11^2+a^2
a^2=289-121
a^2=168
a=√168
a≈12.96 (to nearest hundredth)
Note we knew this assumption because of the answer choices, but technically, "a" COULD have been the hypotenuse without this implicit suggestion making:
a^2=17^2+11^2
a^2=410
a=√410
a≈20.25 (to the nearest hundredth)
Of course the above is not relevant to this particular question but be aware that you won't always be given answer choices to make the assumption of which side is the hypotenuse...
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If AB = 5 , then AE = 5 [Radii of the same circle]
So,
AC = AE + EC
AC = 8+5
AC = 13 units
Now, Using Pythagorean theorem to find the missing side i.e. BD because tangent strikes the circle at 90 degrees making the triangle a right angled triangle
Where c = AC , a = BD and b = AB
169 = BD² + 25
Subtracting 25 to both sides
169 - 25 = BD²
BD² = 144
Taking square root on both sides
BD = 12 units
Answer:
x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
They want you to write a generic expression to represent the total (adding) between a number (which they want you to write as 'x') and 1.
