Given a right triangle and two sides of that triangle, this is the formula that can be used to solve for the third side.
What is the Pythagorean Theorem?
300
This can be described as the change in y divided by the change in x.
What is slope?

400
Given the units m/s and a direction, this is the value you have been provided.
What is velocity?
400
An object that is thrown up into the air with an initial velocity of 98 m/s will take this amount of time to reach a velocity of zero.

A plane flies at 240 km/hr and a wind travels at 70 km/hr. These are the two possible resultant velocities of the plane.
What are 310 km/hr (wind and plane in same direction) and 170 km/hr (wind and plane in opposite direction)?
400
When given a resultant these right triangle formulas can be used to solve for the x component and y component.
What is cosine = adjacent divided by hypotenuse (x component) and sine = opposite divided by hypotenuse (y component)?
