If the side length of a right triangle is 12 inches and the hypotenuse is 13 inches, what is the length of the missing side.

5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

pythagorean theorem

The length of the missing side is 5 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

12^2 + x^2 = 13^2

144 + x^2 = 169

x^2 = 25

x = 5

use this formula:

p(a\b) = p(a and b)/p(b).

take it from here.

graph b

step-by-step explanation:

one solution- graph a (clear intercepting point.)

no solution- graph b (they're parallel, there will never be a point of interception.)

infinite solutions- graph c (all points intercept.)
