OpenStudy (asnaseer):

this is virtually identical to the last one - use the same techniques

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Both legs have to be equal then?

OpenStudy (asnaseer):

what does your intuition tell you? recall how we tackled the last problem and follow the same steps and you should get to the right answer. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is \[3\sqrt{2}\] the answer?

OpenStudy (asnaseer):

correct! :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Really?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So should I write "b=3√2" as the answer?

OpenStudy (asnaseer):

write it as:\[a=b=3\sqrt{2}\]to show that you know that \(a\) and \(b\) must be equal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, thanks.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have a few more to do, but if you're busy...

OpenStudy (asnaseer):

I am about to sign off - bed time for me here.... :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh. :( Okay.

OpenStudy (asnaseer):

But, as I said earlier, I am sure you will get someone willing to help out. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I hope.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks for helping me earlier.

OpenStudy (asnaseer):

best of luck - and have confidence in yourself - you definitely do understand the basic concepts so you should be able to pick these up very quickly. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks again.

OpenStudy (asnaseer):

yw - good night for now... :)
