I know it is a little messy but the answers are
For the first one = (0,7.5)
Second one = (0, 5 2/3)
The answer for A would be 8.5 because if you use a^2+b^2=c^2 you would have 12^2 which equals 144 and you would divide that by two to get 72 and then take the square root to find the side length
The answer for be would be 45 because the sum of all angles in a triangle is 180 and you already know one is 90 and 180-90=90 and because this is an isosceles triangle you know the two bottom angles are equal so 90/2=45 <span />
Multiply 5 and 9 which is 45.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We know that we have a 9 foot long ladder resting upon a wall, with an unknown height, but the ladder is 4.5 feet away from the wall.
This can be represented as a triangle, where x is the unknown side.

4.5
We can use The Pythagorean Theorem to find the value of x. The theorem states that
, where a and b are the lengths of the legs and c is the length of the hypotenuse.
However, we already know the hypotenuse and one leg. Therefore we can substitute inside the equation to find the missing value.

Hope this helped!
