Determine the length of the hypotenuse in a right triangle with legs 5 inches and 12 inches

In a right angled triangle we can use Pythagoras theorem to determine third side in case two sides are given.

The formula of Pythagoras theorem is given by:

Where x , y and z are sides of triangle , z is hypotenuse.

Now we use this formula to find hypotenuse.

Plugging other two sides which are 5 in. and 12 in.

Taking square root on both sides

square root of 169 is 13

so we have z=13

Hypotenuse is 13 inches.

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
