The number 2*2*2*4*5 is not in its prime factorization because not all the factors are prime numbers. A prime number is a number that has no other factors except for 1 and itself.
4 is not a prime number, since it can be divided by 2. The number can be broken down into its prime factors by dividing by 2, and it becomes 2*2.
Therefore, the factorization of the number 2*2*2*4*5 can be broken down to 2*2*2*2*2*5.
(9,40,41) is a Pythagorean Triple, farther down the list than teachers usually venture.
Answer: D. 41 cm
There's a subset of Pythagorean Triples where the long leg is one less than the hypotenuse,
a^2+b^2 = (b+1)^2
a^2 + b^2 = b^2 + 2b +1
a^2=2b+1
So we get one for every odd number, since the square of an odd number is odd and the square of an even number is even.
b = (a^2 - 1)/2
a=3, b=(3^2-1)/2=4, c=b+1=5
a=5, b=(5^2-1)/2 =12, c = 13
a=7, b=24, c=25
a=9, b=40, c=41
a=11, b=60, c=61
a=13, b=84, c=85
It's good to be able to recognize Pythagorean Triples when we see them.
Otherwise we'd have to work the calculator:
√(9² + 40²) = √1681 = 41
