The height of the roof will be 9 feet instead of 5 feet. Determine the length, in feet of the diagonal wood beams on the new roof. Find the leg. a^2 + 9^2=13^2

√88

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 + 9^2=13^2

a² = 13² - 9²

a² = 169 - 81

a² = 88

Take square root of both sides

a = √88

37/3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
