Hypotenuse

5774) b = 4.6188 So you found out that length b measures about 4.6 ft. Now you do basically the exact same thing to solve for c. C is the hypotenuse and the given side is still the adjacent leg of angle 30° (you could also use the side b to solve the equation by using the sine formula) You would use the formula for cosine which is cosine = adjacent leg/hypotenuse. The equation would…

The cosine was developed as the sine of the complement of the angle, and notation for cosine was also varied. The term sinus residuae was used by Viete while Gunter preferred co-sinus in the year 1620. Cavalieri used Si.2, Oughtred used s co arc and Wallis used S [2]. The tangent and cotangent developed out of the need to calculate the height of an object casting a shadow of a certain length, which was of critical importance for the sundial. Thales is known to have used the method of lengths of…

In this lab we will explain how to deduce the equation landing position of the ball thrown by the robotic arm stand. We must create the equations in terms of the radius, height, arm rotation speed, and release angle. The equations must be made with those variables because, those variables are what can change where the ball will land in the cup, and will make the equation more useful to the client. To make sure the equation will remain accurate we have to keep track of all the units throughout…

to know about his theories. The theory he is mostly known for is the pythagorean theorem and it works like this; it states that the hypotenuse in a triangle is equal to the other two sides of a triangle. This also can lead to the pythagorean triples meaning that the numbers that are given are in triples and the bigger number within those three numbers is the hypotenuse and the other two numbers are the other two sides…

Written as an equation: a2 + b2 = c2. What Pythagoras and his followers did not realize is that this also works for any shape: thus, the area of a pentagon on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the pentagons on the other two sides, as it does for a semi-circle or any other regular (or even irregular( shape.” Pythagoras was the famous Greek mathematicians and in his time many had used his work and created , “It soom…

Dear 7th Grade student; You probably don’t know who Pythagoras is and you probably don’t care. Well, after this, you will care. But if you do know who he is by some off chance, great! To you, this will just be a refresher, while for some this is completely new. So, Pythagoras was a mathematical genius. He was respected by all who followed him. But he was feared by most because of his “powers”. Those who followed him were part of a cult or following, and they were serious about what they did.…

in “Pythagoras”) Pythagoras is most remembered for his contributions to mathematics, principally for his discovery of the Pythagorean Theorem, which states that “the square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides,” or a^2+b^2=c^2…

information the child sends to the Wildlife federation will be reviewed and with that data they will be able to track the health and behavior of wildlife and plant species nationwide. These and many other similar activities allowed us to spend time together as a family, learn new concepts, and understand our surroundings. Using Mnemonics to Help Children Remember Facts Mnemonics are simply strategies that could be used to aid information retention. Note that although it is best to learn the…

Pythagoras, who was a well-known scientists, mathematician, and religious teacher, was born in 570 B.C. in the Island of Samos he passed away in 495 B.C. Most believe he committed suicide because of the attack on his society. Little was known about Pythagoras childhood, but certainly he was well educated. Among his teachers there was three philosophers, Thales, Anaximander, and Pherekydes, who influenced Pythagoras while he was young. The most important teacher was Pherekydes, who influenced…

There are many famous and influential mathematicians that have done many wondrous and extraordinary things, some of these range it Einstein, newton and to pascal. But one interesting one in particular is Pythagoras. Pythagoras is one of the many famous mathematicians that has lived on the earth. What he did in math helped shape math to what it is today. Some things he did was learn math and science as much as he could, create the useful Pythagoreanism, and help progress the advancement of…
