Answer: I chose question number 1.
2 coconuts= 2 points
1 coconut + 1 apple (10 points) + Banana (4 points)= 15 points.
Hyp^2 = leg1^2 + leg2^2
hyp^2 -leg1^2 = leg2^2
17^2 - 8^2 = leg2^2
leg2^2 = 289 -64
leg2^2 = 225
leg2 = 15
So, we know that a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Right? That is called the Pythagorean Theorem.
In this case. We can say that 39 is a, 40 is b, and x is c.
NOTE: It doesn't really matter whether 39 is a or b. a & b are just the two legs of the right triangle.
So, if we say that 39 is a, 40 is b, and x is c. We can plug it into the Pythagorean Theorem.
39^2 + 40^2 = x^2
I'll let you take it from there.
