Can someone answer this and then teacher me how I can do more like this in the future?

15²+40²=42.72

Step-by-step explanation:

In this particular problem, you can use pythagorean theorem. The pythagorean theorem consists of the formula a²+b²=c². This theorem is mostly used when solving for the hypotenuse in a right triangle.

In this problem,

a=15

b=40

c=? (this is the hypotenuse)

then, plug the numbers into the formula

a²+b²=c²

15²+40²=?

15²=225

40²=1600

1600+225=1825

or you could just punch the numbers in a calculator

then take the square root of 1825 to find your answer

√1825=42.72

Hope this helps! :)

sorry, i don't know i just need points, i'm new here. chao

in the attachment.   i didn't see your choices.   the word which means there is choices.

step-by-step explanation:

(x,y)

x tells you how much left or right you go from the origin

y tells you how much down or up you go from the origin

so for example (-3,2), you go left 3 and up twice. i denoted which of the ordered pairs is which in my graph.
