Find the missing length. Round to the nearest tenth, if necessary.
Again, I cannot paste the picture but it looks like this:
7 |_\ 19
x
That's a little rude, oobleck
Ummm how abt u hush ur big mouth of urs and stop talking to ppl like that..
if it is a right triangle
Missing side= sqrt (19^2 - 7^2 )
what does ^ mean?
the left side is 7, the right is 19 and the base is x. It also has a 90 degree angle between 7 and x.
A 12
B 17.7
C 19
D 22.45
ok, what is a hyphen. I probably sound stupid but I do not remember what a hyphen is.
Thank You!
i’m pretty sure the answer is 12 I did the math but i’m not the best at math so you could use my answer but you might want someone else’s opinion too
what is the answer then
The missing length can be found using the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. In this case, the hypotenuse has a length of 19, and one of the legs has a length of 7, so we can calculate the length of the other leg as follows:
x^2 = 19^2 - 7^2
x^2 = 361 - 49
x^2 = 312
x = sqrt(312)
x ≈ 17.7
Therefore, the missing length is approximately 17.7, which is closest to option B).
