Question

FAN AND MEDAL TO WHOEVER CAN HELP ME
I need someone to work through this with me and explain it.
A right triangle has base (x - 5) units and height (4x - 10) units.

Part A: What is the square of the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle? Show your work. (4 points)

Part B: What is the area of the triangle? (3 points)

Part C: Using the solution obtained in Part B, explain the closure property of multiplication of polynomials. (3 points)

Answer 1

me

Answer 2

A . you can get the hypotenuse using the pytagorean theorem:
\[H^2=h^2+b^2\]
B . the area can be found as:
\[Area=\frac{b\times h}{2}\]

start with those 2, using the expressions for b and h as a function of x
