help ss below
@snowflake0531
its like the last one
40 is the hypo and 25 and x are the legs?
These are two different triangles, in one, 2 sides are 40, you want to find the hypotenuse In the second one, you have 25 and 35 and the two sides, and want to find the hypotenuse
So, as we said earlier \[a^2+b^2=c^2\] looking at the first triangle, with a and b both equal to 40 how would you write the equation?
80?
im so confused imma ask my teacher tmrw
yeah
well, that turned out wrong, but ok
thank you tho
uh so we have \[40^2+40^2=c^2\] simplify that
What's 40^2, plus itself
3,200
Yes so 3200 = c^2 what does c equal
3200?
\[c^2=3200\] \[\sqrt c^2 = \sqrt3200\] \[c=\sqrt3200\]
simpfly?
we can use the calculator for the sqrt3200 later now for the next triangle 25 and 35 are the sides so we have \[25^2+35^2=c^2\]
So, add 25^2 and 35^2 first
1850
so c = sqrt1850
43.0
So, obviously with sqrt3200 and sqrt1800, sqrt1800 is smaller, which means James ran less And to find the difference between them, convert the two into decimals
*1850 oops
ok thank yu
