Which equation can be used to find the unknown length, a, in this triangle?
A right triangle has a side with length 15 meters and hypotenuse with length 17 meters. The other side is labeled a.
A. a squared + 15 squared = 17 squared
B. 15 squared + 17 squared = a squared
C. a squared + 15 = 17 squared
D. a + 15 squared = 17 squared

its A

Step-by-step explanation:

because the formula is A squared+B squared=C squared

It is A.

Look at the attachment down below:

Step-by-step explanation:

the answer is b.

step-by-step explanation:

by the trigonometric ratio tangent, tangent equals opposite divided by adjacent.

therefore, tan(50) equals ac/3

multiply each side by 3 to get: ac=3tan(50)

the answer is b.

may i see the picture? it would a lot, xox
