Answer:

The sandbox is most likely in the shape of a kite. As it has only two right angles, it cannot be a square or other form of rectangle. It also cannot be a parallelogram, which has no right angles, nor is it a rhombus- all four sides are not of the same length.

A kite, however, has two pairs of equal-length sides that are adjacent to each other. It also has two sets of equal-measure angles, one of which can be 90° if it is a cyclic kite.

Find the length of the hypotenuse

denpristay [2]

Answer: The answer is “10cm”

Step-by-step explanation: To get to this answer we first need to know the formula for find the hypotenuse which is a^2 + b^2 = c^2. A and B are the two sides in this case a and b are 8 cm and 6 cm. Then you plug in the values into the equation, it looks like this 8^2 + 6^ = c^2 once you solve you get 64 + 36 = c. When you add 64 and 36 you get 100 but their is one more step. You must find the square root of 100 which is 10. So your answer for the hypotenuse is “10cm”

5x3 + 14x2 + 9x <br> help

<h3>Answer: x(x+1)(5x+9) </h3>

===================================================

Work Shown:

5x^3 + 14x^2 + 9x

x( 5x^2 + 14x + 9 )

To factor 5x^2 + 14x + 9, we could use the AC method and guess and check our way to getting the correct result.

A better way in my opinion is to solve 5x^2 + 14x + 9 = 0 through the quadratic formula

$x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-(14)\pm\sqrt{(14)^2-4(5)(9)}}{2(5)}\\\\x = \frac{-14\pm\sqrt{16}}{10}\\\\x = \frac{-14\pm4}{10}\\\\x = \frac{-14+4}{10} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{-14-4}{10}\\\\x = \frac{-10}{10} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{-18}{10}\\\\x = -1 \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{-9}{5}\\\\$
