Arielle is building the wooden framework for the roof of a house. She needs the angle created by the vertical and horizontal boards of the frame to be a right angle. The height of the vertical board is 12 feet. The length of the horizontal board is 15 feet. The support beam that will connect the ends of the two boards measures 20 feet.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: a² + b² = c²  ⇒ right triangle
a² + b² < c² ⇒ obtuse triangle
a² + b² > c² ⇒ acute triangle

a = 12 ft ; b = 15 ft ; c = 20 ft

12² + 15² = < > 20²
144 + 225 = < > 400
369 < 400 OBTUSE TRIANGLE

√369 = 19.21

20 - 19.21 = 0.79 

It is an obtuse triangle. About 0.8 foot needs to be removed from the 20-foot board to create a right triangle.

Answer:

Added 19 to each side

Step-by-step explanation:

15x-19=4x+11

Add 19 to each side

5x-19+19=4x+11+19

5x = 4x+30

Answer:

added 19 and 11

4x - 7 < 5 which is not a solution to the inequality

Answers

First, you want to subtract 7 from both sides. On the left, it cancels out, so you're just left with 4x. On the right, your left with -2. Then, you divide 4 on both sides. On the left, it cancels out, and on the right it leaves you with 0.5. Anything below 0.5 (for ex 0, 0.25) would be correct. Anything above will be incorrect. Hope this helped!

The larger leg of a right triangle is 3cm longer than its smaller leg. The hypotenuse is 6cm longer than the smaller leg. how many centimeters long is the smaller leg  please explain how you got it 

Answers

b=a+3\n c=a+6\n a^2+b^2=c^2\n\n a^2+(a+3)^2=(a+6)^2\n a^2+a^2+6a+9=a^2+12a+36\n a^2-6a-27=0\n a^2-9a+3a-27=0\n a(a-9)+3(a-9)=0\n (a+3)(a-9)=0\n a=-3 \vee a=9\n

The length can't be negative, so the answer is 9 cm.
Let the smaller leg be x.

Thus, larger leg = 3 +x
Thus, hypotenuse = 6 + x

Applying pythagoras theorum ;

(6+x)^2 = x^2 + (3+x)^2 \n \n or, 6^2 + 12x + x^2 = 3^2 + 6x + x^2 \n \n i.e., 36 + 12x = 9 + 6x \n \n =>6x = 45 \n \n => x = 9

Thus, the length of smaller peg is 9 cm.

Answer:

6n(n³ - 4n² + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

6n^(4) - 24n³ + 18n ← factor out 6n from each term

= 6n(n³ - 4n² + 3) ← which may be factored further if required
