I find this confusing to find..
wazz dt
@stupidinmath Look at this diagram. Do you agree so far?
here come up @Directrix the super studier!
correct dude!
Segments AD and DB are radii of the same circle so both are 5.
oh, AD and DB is congruent.. oh, so all I need is Pythagorean theorem to find the other side right? XD
To get AT, use the Pythagorean Theorem. (Yes, use the Pythagorean Theorem.) Or, if you have studied Pythagorean Triples, you will see what it is.
yeah, that's all I need. thank youuuuuuuuuuuu again :D
What did you get for AT? (3,4,5) is one of the all time great Pythagorean Triples.
I got 4 :)
4 is good. Attached is some Triple Information.
A person does not try to learn all the triples. :) But, if (3,4,5) is a triple, then so is (6, 8, 10).
oh, that's helpful. thanks :))
So, if you need to find the hypotenuse here, then think (3,4,5) and then 100 times the 3 and 4 to realize that this is (300, 400, and 500). So the hypotenuse is 500. A major time saver, I think. |dw:1386422764590:dw|
