Question

the hypotenuse of a right triangle is 25 cm, and thr shorter leg is 15 cm. Find the length of the other leg.

Answer 1

you need to use the Pythagorean Theorem A^2+ B^2= C^2
the hypotenuse is always across from the right angle, and is always C
so.... A^2+ 15^2= 25^2
A^2+225=625
-225 -225
_______________
A^2= 400
then you square root both sides
A= 20cm/short leg :)

Answer 2

long leg not short leg srry :)

Answer 3

thanks! can u help me more here?

Answer 4

sure what do you need?

Answer 5

which of the following equation is of a parabola with a vertex at (0,-5)?

y=(x- 5) 2^, y= ( x+5)2^, y+ x2^-5, or y+ x 2^+5?

Answer 6

what of the circle that has a diameter endpoints are (2,7) and -6-1)

Answer 7

find the distance between the points (-4, -5) and (3,-1.

Answer 8

the first Q is y= (x+5)^2

Answer 9

thanks!

Answer 10

for the second one im not quite sure what your asking...are you asking what is the center called? or what...sorry

Answer 11

what of the circle that has a diameter endpoints are (2,7) and -6-1). that one? yes.

Answer 12

yeah that one

Answer 13

k, yes that's what i'm asking

Answer 14

different question:

what is the center of the circle that has a diameter whose endpoints are (2,7) and (-6, -1)?

ans: (4,3), (-2, 4), or (-2,3)?

Answer 15

okee for that one you set it up like this
(X1+X2), (Y1+Y2)
_______ _______
2 2
so (2-6, 7-1)
____ ____
2 2
(-4, 6)
___ ___
2 2
so therefore the answer is (-2, 3)

Answer 16

the distance one you use the distance formula D=√(X2-X1)^2 + (Y2-Y1)^2
D=√(3+4)+(-1+5)=
D=√(8)^2+ (4)^2=
D=V64+16=
D=8.9

Answer 17

What question is that answer for?

Answer 18

find the distance between the points (-4,-5), (3,-1)
