Find the length of side AB in the right triangle shown.

Bogdan [553]

Side AB is 72 cm long.

Explanation:

To find the length of side AB you have to use this formula:

${a}^{2} + {b}^{2} = {c}^{2}$

*Remember there are two legs (a and b) and a hypotenuse (c) on a triangle. The longest side will be the hypotenuse and the other two will be the legs. For this triangle the hypotenuse is side BC while the legs are sides CA and side AB.

Plug in the numbers into the equation.

${65}^{2} + {b}^{2} = {97}^{2}$
For this triangle, you were given the hypotenuse (c) and one leg (a). To find the last length solve the equation and balance it so only b is left, like this:

$4225 + {b}^{2} = 9409$

$9409 - 4225 = 5184$

Soo...

${b}^{2} = 5184$

Then to get the side length, square root 5184.

$\sqrt{5184} = 72$

So the length of the last side is 72 cm.

A skydiver is falling 176 feet per second. How many feet per minute is he falling

Vlada [557]

The correct answer here is that if the skydiver is falling 176 feet per second, he is falling 10560 feet per minute. This can be worked out quite easily, by considering that if there are 60 seconds in a minute, we then need to work out the proportion of 176 feet/1 sec = x/60 sec. You then need to multiply 60 by 176 to get 10560, which is your answer.
