information we know that Vanessa must walk North x paces‚ then 2x + 4 paces to the East. We do not know which direction Ahmed must go‚ however‚ we assume that they will end up in the same location. Using a piece of paper‚ I drew the triangle and it is right triangle. Now I can use the Pythagorean Theorem to help solve for x. The Pythagorean Theorem is a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Letting a = x‚ b= 2x+4‚ and c = 2x + 6. a^2 + b^2 = c^2 Pythagorean Theorem x^2 + (2x+4)^2 = (2x+6)^2 Putting the binomials

The Truman Doctrine Shortly after World War II had ended the Cold War began in 1945. The Cold War was fought between the United States and the U.S.S.R. The Cold War got its name because it never got “hot” with action of an actual battle. It was more of a verbal fighting and threating to blow up each other but never actually doing it. When the United States decided to drop a bomb on Japan‚ the U.S.S.R was mad the United States had secretly developed the bomb. Then Russia started spreading communism

Trigonometry Trigonometry uses the fact that ratios of pairs of sides of triangles are functions of the angles. The basis for mensuration of triangles is the right- angled triangle. The term trigonometry means literally the measurement of triangles. Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that developed from simple measurements. A theorem is the most important result in all of elementary mathematics. It was the motivation for a wealth of advanced mathematics‚ such as Fermat’s Last Theorem

the exact length of the purposed ramp. You know that the ramp will span 20 feet and drop 6 feet. If you sketch a side view of the ramp on a piece of graph paper you notice that it forms a right triangle. The length of the surface of the new ramp will be equal to the long side of this right triangle. Remembering the distance formula from MTH220 class‚ you consider how it can be used to find the length of the ramp. Equation and Variables The distance formula is used to find distance between

Pythagorean Theorem was termed after Pythagoras‚ who was a well-known Greek philosopher and mathematician‚ and the Pythagorean Theorem is one of the first theorems identified in ancient civilizations. “The Pythagorean theorem says that in any right triangle the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse” (Dugopolski‚ 2012‚ p. 366 para. 8). For this reason‚ many builders from various times throughout history have used this theorem to assure that

Treasure Hunt: Finding the Values of Right Angle Triangles This final weeks course asks us to find a treasure with two pieces of a map. Now this may not be a common use of the Pythagorean Theorem to solve the distances for a right angled triangle but it is a fun exercise to find the values of the right angle triangle. Buried treasure: Ahmed has half of a treasure map‚which indicates that the treasure is buried in the desert 2x + 6 paces from Castle Rock. Vanessa has the other half of the map

1. Harry Truman was a realistic‚ pragmatic president who skillfully led the American people against the menace posed by the Soviet Union. Assess the validity of this statement by examining the Foreign Policy implemented during Truman’s presidency. At the end of the Second World War two major issues were brought to attention.
