Use the Pythagorean Theorem (a? + b2 = (?) to find the missing side length. Round to the nearest tenth.

 3.9  (choice A)

Work Shown:

Apply the pythagorean theorem to get

a^2+b^2 = c^2

1^2+b^2 = 4^2

1+b^2 = 16

b^2 = 16-1

b^2 = 15

b = sqrt(15)

b = 3.87298

b = 3.9

location: point 0

step-by-step explanation:

well, -8 to 10 on a number line is 18 spaces.

1/9 of 18 is 2.

so, 4/9 of 18 must be 8.

8 spaces from -8 (a) is 0.

so, 4/9 of the way from -8 to 10 is 0!
