Solve a Right Triangle

RAMPS A boat ramp has a base that is 25 feet long and 4.2 feet high. Write an equation that can be used to find the length of the ramp. Then solve. Round to the nearest tenth.

a2 + b2 = c2 Pythagorean Theorem

4.22 + 252 = c2 Replace a with 4.2 and b with 25.

Solve a Right Triangle

Answer: Since length cannot be negative, the boat

ramp is about 25.4 feet long.

17.64 + 625 = c2 Evaluate 4.22 and 252.

642.64 = c2 Add 17.64 and 625.

Definition of square root

± 25.4 c Use a calculator.

A. 16 – 7.5 = x; 8.5 feet

B. 162 – 7.52 = x2; 14.1 feet

C. 162 + 7.52 = x2; 17.7 feet

D. 162 + 7.52 = x; 23.5 feet

STAIRS The stairs leading up to a commuter plane has a base that is 16 feet long and 7.5 feet high. Write an equation that can be used to find the length of the stairs. Then solve. Round to the nearest tenth.

CAMPING The cross section of a camping tent is shown below. Find the width of the base of the tent.

Each half of the cross section forms a right triangle. Use the Pythagorean Theorem.

a2 + b2 = c2 Pythagorean Theorem

82 + x2 = 102 Replace a with 4.8 and c with 10.

64 + x2 = 100 Evaluate 82 and 102.

64 – 64 + x2 = 100 – 64 Subtract 64 from each side.

x2 = 36 Simplify.

Definition of square root

x = 6 or –6 Simplify.Answer: The width of the base of the tent is x + x

or 6 + 6 = 12 feet.
