The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 9 cm, and the shorter leg is 9 cm. Find the length of the other leg.

9 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

If you were to imagine this right triangle, you would find it to be a 45 - 45 - 90 triangle. Perhaps the " shorter leg " piece of information was present to trick you, considering that the legs are congruent by converse to base angle theorem.

How is this triangle a 45 - 45 - 90? In such a triangle, the legs can be posed as x cm, as the base angles are congruent ( 45 and 45 ), thus the legs of the triangle are congruent as well. The hypotenuse would be x√2, and as we can see -

If legs = x, Hypotenuse = x√2 = 9√2

Thus, the length of the other leg is 9 centimeters ( 9 cm )

Hope that helps!

the system of inequalities is

step-by-step explanation:

step 1

find the equation of the dashed line

we have the points

(0,0) and (3,1)

the line passes through the origin, so, is a direct variation

find the slope

the equation of the dashed line is

the solution of the inequality a s the shaded area above the dashed line

therefore

the equation of the inequality a is

step 2

find the equation of the solid line

we have the points

(4,0) and (0,4)

find the slope

the equation of the solid line is

the solution of the inequality b s the shaded area below the solid line

therefore

the equation of the inequality b is

step 3

the system of inequalities is
