Question 1

A) Correctly label the sides of the triangle shown below:

  • Hypotenuse: Drop target 1 (the longest side opposite the right angle)
  • Leg: Drop target 2 (one of the two sides that form the right angle)
  • Leg: Drop target 3 (the remaining side that forms the right angle)

B) Given RP = 24 and DR = 7, the correct way to set up the problem to find DP is:

  • x² + 7² = 24² (This applies the Pythagorean theorem, where x is the length of DP).

C) To find DP:

Using the equation from part (B):

\[ x^2 + 7^2 = 24^2 \]

Calculating:

\[ x^2 + 49 = 576 \] \[ x^2 = 576 - 49 \] \[ x^2 = 527 \] \[ x = \sqrt{527} \] \[ x \approx 22.9 \] (rounded to the nearest tenth)

So, DP ≈ 22.9.


Question 2

A) For the triangle shown below, correctly label the sides:

  • Hypotenuse: Drop target 1 (longest side opposite the right angle)
  • Leg: Drop target 2 (one of the sides forming the right angle)
  • Leg: Drop target 3 (the remaining side)

B) If CE = 29 and AC = 20, the equation that can be used to find AE is:

  • 20² + x² = 29² (applying the Pythagorean theorem).

C) To find AE:

Using the equation from part (B):

\[ 20^2 + x^2 = 29^2 \]

Calculating:

\[ 400 + x^2 = 841 \] \[ x^2 = 841 - 400 \] \[ x^2 = 441 \] \[ x = \sqrt{441} \] \[ x = 21 \]

So, AE = 21.


Question 3

A) For the triangle pictured above, which side is the hypotenuse?

The side labeled 14.7 km (hypotenuse is the longest side).

B) To find the value of x using the Pythagorean theorem:

  1. Assuming the legs of the triangle are labeled as 11.9 km and x, we can set up: \[ 11.9^2 + x^2 = 14.7^2 \]

  2. Solving for x: \[ x^2 = 14.7^2 - 11.9^2 \] \[ x^2 = 216.09 - 141.61 \] \[ x^2 = 74.48 \] \[ x = \sqrt{74.48} \] \[ x \approx 8.6 \] km (rounded to the nearest tenth)

So, x ≈ 8.6 km.


Question 4

A) Using YS = 6.3 km and YL = 15.4 km, to find LS:

Using the Pythagorean theorem:

  1. Let LS = x. \[ YS^2 + LS^2 = YL^2 \] \[ (6.3)^2 + x^2 = (15.4)^2 \]

  2. Calculating: \[ 39.69 + x^2 = 237.16 \] \[ x^2 = 237.16 - 39.69 \] \[ x^2 = 197.47 \] \[ x = \sqrt{197.47} \] \[ x \approx 14.0 \] km (rounded to the nearest tenth)

So, LS ≈ 14.0 km.


Question 5

A) Using JE = 4.8 and EW = 28.6 to find JW:

Using the Pythagorean theorem:

  1. Let JW = x. \[ JE^2 + JW^2 = EW^2 \] \[ (4.8)^2 + x^2 = (28.6)^2 \]

  2. Calculating: \[ 23.04 + x^2 = 817.96 \] \[ x^2 = 817.96 - 23.04 \] \[ x^2 = 794.92 \] \[ x = \sqrt{794.92} \] \[ x \approx 28.2 \] (rounded to the nearest tenth)

So, JW ≈ 28.2.


Question 6

A) If one of the legs measures 10 cm and the hypotenuse measures 50.5 cm:

  1. Let the unknown leg be x. We will use the Pythagorean theorem: \[ 10^2 + x^2 = 50.5^2 \]

  2. Calculating: \[ 100 + x^2 = 2550.25 \] \[ x^2 = 2550.25 - 100 \] \[ x^2 = 2450.25 \] \[ x = \sqrt{2450.25} \] \[ x \approx 49.5 \] (rounded to the nearest tenth)

So, the length of the other leg is approximately 49.5 cm.
