Question

Given the following triangle, solve for the missing side

Answer 1

it's a right angle triangle, so wat are the first two things that pop into ur head when u see a right angle triangle?

Answer 2

ummmm :/ i know nothing of this i forgot it all

Answer 3

pythagromus theorem, \[c ^{2}=b ^{2}+a ^{2}\]
and Trigonometry
SohCahToa.
Do you remember these formulas? and i advice that u never forget these, they r extremly important!

Answer 4

wat kind of mat are u doing

Answer 5

algerbra 2 :/

Answer 6

u know those two formulas? @gnungaray616

Answer 7

3.56 ? is the answer
yeah i seen that formula before

Answer 8

no

Answer 9

:/ hm,mmmm

Answer 10

so back to my two formulas :P

Answer 11

yeahhh lol show me how to do it pleaseee :)

Answer 12

ok so when dealing with right angle triangles u normally use either of the formulas. when given an angle or u need to solve an angle then u would use trigonometry.

Answer 13

but since u r given only sides and u dont need to solve for any angle then we will use pythagromus theorem

Answer 14

so given that c is the hypothenus and a or b r any of the other sides, i want u to plug in the values given and let me see if u did it right :)

Answer 15

4.6^2 +3.5^2 =c^2 ?

Answer 16

4.6 is c so it would be
a^2 +3.5^2 =4.6^2

Answer 17

so now solve for a :)

Answer 18

1.24?

Answer 19

no

Answer 20

a^2 +3.5^2 =4.6^2
a^2 = 4.6^2- 3.5^2

Answer 21

u got that?

Answer 22

8.91 when i input that in my calculator

Answer 23

very close! but u forgot that
a^2 = 8.91
but not a ;) so now wat do u do to get a?

Answer 24

divide ?

Answer 25

i keep getting 54.57

Answer 26

can you solve it but show me step by step how you do it

Answer 27

yea

Answer 28

which missing side do u want me to solve?
