I got a 7/9 and it's B,D,B,A,D,C,B,A,D trust me I'm right I did the quiz

D

B
A
These are the answers for 7th grade pre algebra B lesson 6 Unit one

well, you could always consider the 5-12-13 right triangle.

My multiple choice did not have 13 so I chose 12 and that was correct

Thanks

Thanks, You're 100% Correct, "None in"

None in is 100% correct and anonymous is 100% correct too!

None in is correct 😭😭😭

To find the missing length of the triangle, we can use the concept of the Pythagorean theorem. According to the theorem, in a right-angled triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the longest side) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

In this case, we have the side lengths of 5 and 12. Let's assume the missing side length is represented by 'X'. So, we can set up the equation as follows:

X^2 = 5^2 + 12^2

X^2 = 25 + 144

X^2 = 169

To find the value of X, we need to take the square root of both sides of the equation:

√(X^2) = √169

X = 13

Therefore, the missing side length of the triangle is 13 units.
