A certain television is advertised as a 37-inch TV (the diagonal length). If the width of
the TV is 12 inches, how many inches tall is the TV?

The TV is 35 inches tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Diagonal(D) is 37 inches, height (H) is X inches s,Width(W) is 12 inches  

D^2 = H^2 + W^2

37^2 = X^2 + 12^2

(HEIGHT) X ^2 =37^2-12^2

(HEIGHT)X ^2=1369-144

(HEIGHT) X ^2=1225

(HEIGHT)X=35

So the TV is 35 inches tall

start with a line segment pq that we will copy. mark a point r that will be one endpoint of the new line segment. set the compasses' point on the point p of the line segment to be copied. adjust the compasses' width to the point q. the compasses' width is now equal to the length of the line segment pq.
