1) a
2) c
#1 explanation:
x^4-20x^2=-64
x^4-20x^2+64=0
(find a number that multiplies to the last number aka 64 and adds up to b aka 20)
((x-4)(x-16))^2
x= -2,2,-4,4
same for #2 w different variable and numbers
The third piece is 59 cm long.
Add the first two pieces up. 7+34= 41. Since the whole stick is 100 cm long, subtract 41 from 100 to find the length of the third piece. 100-41=59.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the longest length is always the hypotenuse
Use Pythagorean theorem
a^2+b^2=c^2
5^2+10^2=c^2
c=11.18
Note: if c=13 than it is a right triangle
since 11.18 not=13
not right triangle
