1. Problem: Calculate the area of a triangle with base $b=10$ units and height $h=6$ units.
2. Formula: The area $A$ of a triangle is given by $$A=\frac{1}{2} \times b \times h$$
3. Substitute the values: $$A=\frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times 6$$
4. Simplify: $$A=\frac{1}{2} \times 60$$
5. Calculate: $$A=30$$
6. Answer: The area of the triangle is 30 square units.

1. Problem: Find the circumference of a circle with radius $r=7$ units.
2. Formula: The circumference $C$ of a circle is $$C=2 \pi r$$
3. Substitute the value: $$C=2 \pi \times 7$$
4. Simplify: $$C=14 \pi$$
5. Approximate: $$C \approx 14 \times 3.1416 = 43.9824$$
6. Answer: The circumference is approximately 43.98 units.

1. Problem: Solve for $x$ in the equation $2x + 5 = 17$.
2. Subtract 5 from both sides: $$2x + 5 - 5 = 17 - 5$$
3. Simplify: $$2x = 12$$
4. Divide both sides by 2: $$\frac{\cancel{2}x}{\cancel{2}} = \frac{12}{2}$$
5. Calculate: $$x = 6$$
6. Answer: $x=6$.

1. Problem: Find the length of the hypotenuse $c$ of a right triangle with legs $a=3$ units and $b=4$ units.
2. Formula: Pythagorean theorem $$c=\sqrt{a^2 + b^2}$$
3. Substitute values: $$c=\sqrt{3^2 + 4^2}$$
4. Calculate squares: $$c=\sqrt{9 + 16}$$
5. Sum inside root: $$c=\sqrt{25}$$
6. Calculate square root: $$c=5$$
7. Answer: The hypotenuse length is 5 units.
