If a = 3 sqrt(3) in the right triangle shown, what is the value of b?

Note: Consider the below figure attached with this question.

Given:

To find:

The value of b.

Solution:

In a right angled triangle,

For the given right angled triangle,

On cross multiplication, we get

Therefore, the value of b is 9.

step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x+4

step-by-step explanation:

to find the slope

slope = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (-8-4)/ (-4-0)

    = -12/-4

  = 3

using the slope intercept form of a line

y= mx+b

we know the slope is 3

we know the y intercept is 4 ( the point where it crosses the y axis or x=0)

y = 3x+4
