Is it possible for a right triangle with a leg that is 12 inches long and a hypotenuse that is 37 inches long to be congruent to a right triangle with a leg that is 35 inches long and a hypotenuse that is 37 inches long? Complete the explanation. Yes
. Let the remaining leg of the first triangle have a length of x inches. Then by the Pythagorean Theorem, x2 + 122 = 372. So, x2 + 144 = 1,369, x2 = 1,225, and x =
. Therefore, the hypotenuse and a leg of the first right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and a leg of the second right triangle, so the triangles
are
congruent by the HL Triangle Congruence Theorem.

  x = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

It appears the only missing piece of the explanation is ...

  x² = 1225  ⇒  x = 35

the system of inequity is

step-by-step explanation:

from the given graph it is noticed that we have two related lines. one is solid and another is dashed.

if a line passing through two points, then the equation of line is

the solid line passing through the points (0,4) and (4,0).

the related equation of solid line is .

similarly, find the related equation of dashed line. the dashed liune passing through the points (0,0) and (3,1).

the related equation of dashed line is

from the given graph it is noticed that the point (0,1) lies on the shaded region, therefore the point (0,1) must be satisfied by the related equations.

check the related equations by the point (0,1).

this statement is true if the sign of inequality is < instead of equality. since it is an solid line therefore the sign of inequality will be . the required inequality is

similarly, check the second related equation.

it is a dashed line, so this statement is true if the sign of inequality is > . the required inequality is
