This answer us 16.97
you do square root of 288 and it will give you the answer of 16.97
(2x+1)=Jeremy´s age
(2x+3)=Sam´s age.
we suggest this equation:
(2x+1)(2x+3)=783
4x²+6x+2x+3=783
4x²+8x-780=0
x²+2x-195=0
We solve this quadratic equation:
x=[-2⁺₋√(4-4*1*(-195))]/2=(-2⁺₋28)/2
x₁=(-2-28)/2=-15 this solution is not valid.
x₂=(-2+28)/2=13
Jeremy´s age=2x+1=2*13+1=27
Sam´s age=2x+3=2*13+3=29
Answer:
In words, if the hypotenuse and a leg of one right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and a leg of a second right triangle, then the triangles are congruent. If in triangles ABC and DEF, angle A = angle D = right angle, AB = DE (leg), and BC = EF (hypotenuse), then triangle ABC is congruent to triangle DEF.
