To find the hypotenuse the formula would be:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

BUT! These two questions ask for the length of the smaller sides, so we need to rearrange the formula to:

a^2 = c^2 - b^2

Where c is the hypotenuse, and b is the other known length. Use this formula to solve the length of the unknown side. 

Let's call the unknown side x,

1) a^2 = c^2 - b^2
    x^2 = 17^2 - 15^2
    x^2 = 64
    Square root both sides to get x
    x = 8

2) a^2 = c^2 - b^2
    x^2 = 26^2 - 24^2
    x^2 = 100
    Square root both sides to get x
    x = 10

Hope this helped! Ask me if there's any part of the working you don't understand :)

A^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + 15^2 = 17^2
a^2 + 225 = 289
a^2 = 289 - 225
a^2 = 64
sqrt of 64 = 8
a = 8
x = 8

I need help with these please... anyone?
Svetlanka [38]
The total measure of the interior angles of each figure will be:

180 (n-2) = 180 (4 - 2) = 360

Now add all those angles and set them equal to 360.

41 + 133 + 86 + x = 360

x is the unknown angle.

260 + x = 360
x = 100

The missing angle that is Not labeled in any of the figure is 100°

Hope this helps :)

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!

The basic form of the equation is:
4p(x-h) = (y-k)2

(h,k) is the vertex


4(-0.5)(x-1.5) = (y-(-4))2
-2(x-1.5) = (y+4)2
-2(x-1.5) = y2 + 8y + 16
x - 1.5 = (-1/2)(y2 + 8y + 16)
x = (-1/2)y2 - 4y - 8 + 1.5
x = (-1/2)y2 - 4y - 6.5

In one study, it was found that the correlation coefficient between two variables is -0.98. Which statement is true?
Vadim26 [7]

<u>Answer- </u>D. There is a strong negative association between the variables

<u>Solution-</u>

Properties of Correlation Coefficient

1-  Its value ranges between -1 and 1.

2- The greater the absolute value of correlation coefficient, the stronger is the linear relationship.

3- The weakest linear relationship is indicated by a correlation coefficient equal to 0.

4- A positive correlation means that if one variable gets bigger, the other variable tends to get bigger.

5- A negative correlation means that if one variable gets bigger, the other variable tends to get smaller.

As the given correlation coefficient is -0.98 (-ve), whose absolute value is 0.98 (closer to 1)

So there is a strong negative association between the variables.
