Seth is using the figure shown below to prove the pythagorean theorem using triangle similarity:

in the given triangle pqr, angle p is 90° and segment ps is perpendicular to segment qr.

! the figure shows triangle pqr with right angle at p and segment ps. point s is on side qr.

part a: identify a pair of similar triangles. (2 points)

part b: explain how you know the triangles from part a are similar. (4 points)

part c: if rs = 4 and rq = 16, find the length of segment rp. show your work. (4 points)

x = 12

y = 1

for the points!

the answer would be 44.79

step-by-step explanation:

answer: integers are just whole numbers: positive, negative, and zero.

i = {-∞, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ∞}

let x = 1st integer

let y = 2nd integer

x = 3y + 17   {equation 1}

xy = -24         {equation 2}

substitute 3y+17 in place of x n equation 2

and solve for y.

(3y+17)y = -24

3y2 + 17y = -24

3y2 + 17y + 24 = 0

from quadratic equation:

y = [-17±√(172-4(3)(24))]/(2(3))

y = (-17 ±√1)/6

y = (-17+1)/6   or     y = (-17-1)/6

y = -16/6           or     y = -18/6

y = -2 2/3         or   y = -3

since we are dealing with

y = -3

x = 3y+17 = -9+17 = 8

the integers are -3, 8
