What is the length of the missing side of the triangle in simplest radical form? the figure is not drawn to scale.

4√34

Step-by-step explanation:

the question asks for the value of the hypotenuse

Applying the Pythagorean equation

a²+b²=c² where a=12cm, b=20cm and c?

substituting values to equation

12²+20²=c²

144+400=c²

544=c²

√544=c

√16 × √34 =c

4×√34

4√34

ANSWER

EXPLANATION

The missing side is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

According to the Pythagoras Theorem, the length of the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the length of the squares of the two shorter legs.

Let the hypotenuse be x.

Then,

Take positive square root of both sides.

so a parallelogram is just like a square base times height. multiply 40 and 39 to get 1560 inches.

a triangle is base times height divided by two. so multiply 7.9 and 5 and then divide it by 2 to get 19.75inches.

the kite can be split into two separate triangles and added together to get the total area. 30 x 4 /2 which equals 60. make sure to double it for the two triangles making 120.
