Question

PLS SOMEONE HELP ME FIND Y

Answer 1

Explanation:

We can solve this using the pythagorean theorem.

We know that a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

Our c value is the hypotenuse, and it does not matter what a or b is, as we will be solving for one of them.

We can set up our equation as such:

6^2 + b^2 = 20^2

From here, we can solve this algebraically.

`6^2 + b^2 = 20^2`

`36 + b^2 = 400`

`b^2 = 364`

`b=√(364)`

`b=19.07878403`

Here, b is our length for y, so y is equal to 19.07878403.
