Question 954559: 1.
triangle with leg 14 and X and hypotenuse x+2. how do you solve that?
AND
2.
The aspect ratio of a TV screen is the ratio of the width to the height of the image. S regular TV has an aspect ratio of 4:3. Find the height and width of a 42-inch TV screen to the nearest tenth of an inch. (The measure given is the length of the diagonal across the screen.)
AND
3.
A "wide-screen" TV has an aspect ratio of 16:9. Find the length of a diagonal on a wide-screen TV screen that has the same height as my second question.

1.
triangle with leg and and hypotenuse
if given hypotenuse means you have right-angle triangle, so you use Pythagorean theorem:
-> other leg
and hypotenuse
so, your triangle has sides length: , , and
2.
given: aspect ratio of
Find the height and width of a 42-inch TV screen to the nearest tenth of an inch. (The measure given is the length of the diagonal across the screen.)
let length be , width
given:
so, =>
also given that is 42-inch TV screen, means its diagonal is
you know that diagonal splits TV screen into two right-angle triangles whose legs are length and width
use Pythagorean theorem again:
....since , we can substitute it
...plug in value for
now find the length:
3.
A "wide-screen" TV has an aspect ratio of 16:9. Find the length of a diagonal on a wide-screen TV screen that has the same height as my second question.
let height be from second question:
given:
so, => =>=> ....since and
