Question 10 The hypotenuse of a right triangle is I m longer than the longer leg. The other leg is 7 m shorter than the longer leg. Determine the lengths of the three sides of the triangle. (3 marks)​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

5, 12, 13

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the longer leg then x + 1 is the hypotenuse and x - 7 the shorter leg

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

x² + (x - 7)² = (x + 1)² ← expand using FOIL

x² + x² - 14x + 49 = x² + 2x + 1

2x² - 14x + 49 = x² + 2x + 1 ( subtract x² + 2x + 1 from both sides )

x² - 16x + 48 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 4)(x - 12) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4

x - 12 = 0 ⇒ x = 12

x = 4 , then x - 7 = 4 - 7 = - 3 ← not possible

x = 12, then x - 7 = 12 - 7 = 5 and x + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13

The lengths of the 3 sides are

longer leg = 12 m , shorter leg = 5 m and hypotenuse = 13 m

Solve:

**Disclaimer** I assume that it is supposed to be (25 + 45). If it was, then you may refer to my answer. If the ")" after 45 is just a typo, you may point it out and I will redo it.

Do the parenthesis of the inner most

=13 + {16 + 2 - [70 × 3] + 9}

Whose perfect square should be added to the sum of the greatest three digit prime number and the smallest two-digit prime number, so that the resultant number is perfect square of 32? ​pls give me ans pls pls pls

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y is the required number.

a/c to question,

y² + greatest three digit prime number + smallest two digit prime number = 32²

we know, greatest three digit prime number = 997

smallest two digit prime number = 11

now, y² + 997 + 11 = 32²

or, y² + 1008 = 1024

or, y² = 1024 - 1008

or, y² = 16

or, y = 4

hence, required number number is one digit even number e.g., y = 4

f(x) = -4(x+3)+6(x+4)

Answers

Answer:

zero of the function occurs at x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(x) = -4(x+3)+6(x+4)

Since the question is incomplete, we can as well find the zero of the given function. The zero exists when f(x) = 0

Hence;

-4(x+3)+6(x+4) = 0

Expand

-4x - 12 + 6x + 24 = 0

Collect the like terms

-4x + 6x - 12 +24 = 0

2x + 12 = 0

2x = -12

x = -12/2

x = -6

Hence the zero of the function occurs at x = -6

Function g is the result of these transformations on the parent sine function:
-vertical stretch by a factor of 3
-horizontal shift left pi/2
-units vertical shift down 4 units
Below is the question from the Edmentum test :)

Answers

Answer:

g(x) = 3·sin(x + π/2) - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The given (general form of a) sin function is g(x) = A·sin(x + C) + D

Where;

A = The amplitude (the vertical stretch) = 3

C = The phase shift, left = π/2

D = The vertical shift = 4 units down = -4

Therefore, given that in the parent function, we have f(x) = sin(x), by substituting the values of A, C, and D to complete the equation modeling the function g, we get;

g(x) = 3·sin(x + π/2) - 4

[tex]y = -\frac{2}{3}x + 2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, as the graphs or equations of the lines are not given.

However, I will give a general explanation of calculating both intercepts

A linear equation is of the form:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

Where:

[tex]b \to[/tex] y intercept

So, the equation

[tex]y = -\frac{2}{3}x + 2[/tex]

has 2 as its y-intercept

Set y to 0, to calculate the x-intercept

[tex]0 = -\frac{2}{3}x + 2[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]\frac{2}{3}x = 2[/tex]

Multiply by 3/2

find the interior angle sum for the following polygon.​

Answers

We know that the interior angle sum of a polygon is (n − 2) × 180°, where n is the number of sides.

Here, number of sides (n) = 12

So, interior angle sum = (n − 2) × 180°

=> interior angle sum = (12 - 2) × 180°

=> interior angle sum = 10 × 180°

=> interior angle sum = 1800°

So, the interior angle sum of this polygon is 1800°.

Eliana claims she has discovered a method for determining the general form equation of a line
The line Ax + By + C = 0 will always be perpendicular to the line Bx - Ay + C = 0.
Is Eliana's method reasonable? Explain why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of a line is given by:

Ax + By + C = 0

The slope intercept form of a line is give by:

y = mx + b;

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

Given a line with equation Ax + By + C = 0; the slope of the line can be gotten by representing in slope intercept form, hence it becomes:

By = -Ax - C

y = (-A/B)x - C/B

The slope is -A/B

For a line with equation Bx - Ay + C = 0:

Ay = Bx + C

y = (B/A)x + C/A

the slope is B/A

Two lines are said to be perpendicular if the product of the slopes is -1. Hence:

-A/B * B/A = -1; hence the two lines are perpendicular

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

Explanation:

For any 45-45-90 triangle, the two legs are the same length. We consider triangles like this to be isosceles. So we have b = 18 as the vertical leg because the horizontal leg is also 18 units long.

The hypotenuse of these types of triangles is always [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] times longer compared to the leg length. So the hypotenuse is [tex]a = 18\sqrt{2}[/tex]

As an alternative, you can use the pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse.
