Answers

  1. The Pythagorean theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. This theorem is used in geometry to find the length of the missing side of a right triangle.

  2. The steps to solve a quadratic equation by factoring are:

    1. Write the equation in standard form, ax^2 + bx + c = 0
    2. Factor the quadratic expression
    3. Set each factor equal to zero
    4. Solve both equations
    5. Write the solutions as x = (solution 1) and x = (solution 2)
  3. A derivative in calculus represents the rate at which a function changes with respect to its input. It is calculated using the limit of the change in the function output over the change in the input as the change in input approaches zero.

  4. To find the angle of a triangle using trigonometry, use the following formula: sin(angle) = opposite / hypotenuse. Take the inverse sine of the ratio to find the angle in radians or degrees.

  5. A system of linear equations is a set of equations involving linear expressions with multiple variables. It can be solved using matrices by representing the coefficients and constants in the system as a matrix equation Ax = b, where A is the coefficient matrix, x is the variable matrix, and b is the constant matrix. The system can then be solved for x by taking the inverse of A and multiplying by b.
