Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the angle opposite b is the obtuse angle then the answer is a² + c² < b² because in an obtuse triangle, the sum of the squares of the shortest sides must be less than the square of the longest side. In this case, the longest side is the one opposite the largest angle, which is b.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangles, the largest angle is always opposite from the longest side.

In other words, since the angle opposite to side b is obtuse and there are only 180 degrees in a triangle, then side b must be the longest side.

In an obtuse triangle, the longest side squared will always be greater than the squared values of the two shorter sides.

The correct answer is C.

The first equation given $6=1-2n+5$

We have to add 1 and 5 to the right side first. We will get,

$6= 6 - 2n$

To get rid of 6 from the right side we have to subtract 6 from both sides.

$6-6 = 6-6-2n$

$6-6 = -2n$

$0=-2n$

To find n we have to move -2 to the other side by dividing both side by -2.

$0/-2 = -2n/-2$

$0= n$

$n=0$

So we have got the required answer for the first question.

The solution is n = 0.

The second equation given,

$8x-2 = -9+7x$

First we have to move 7x to the left side by subtracting it from both sides.

$8x-7x-2 = -9+7x-7x$

$8x-7x-2 = -9$

$x-2 = -9$

Now we have to move -2 to the right side by adding 2 to both sides.

$x-2+2 = -9+2$

$x = -9+2$

$x = -7$

We have got the required answer for the second question.

The solution is x = -7.

The third equation given,

$-8 = -(x+4)$

We have to get rid of that negative sign from both sides. As we have negative sign to both sides we can cancel it out. We will get,

$8=x+4$

Now we have to move 4 to left side by subtracting it from both sides.

$8-4 = x+4-4$

$8-4 = x$

$4=x$

$x = 4$

So we have got the required answer .

The solution is x = 4.

B. The sum of three numbers is 51. The second number is three more than the first number, and the third number is

Svetach [21]

Answer:

12, 15, 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 1st # = x

Let 2nd # = x+3

Let 3rd # = 2x

Your equation is: x + (x+3) + 2x = 51

Add up all the x: x + x +3 +2x =51

Subtract 3 from both sides: 4x + 3 - 3 = 51 - 3

Divide 4 from both sides: 4x / 4 = 48 / 4

Your 1st number is x = 12

For the 2nd # it is 3 more than x so 12 + 3 = 15

For the 3rd # it is 2 times x so 2(12) = 24

Check your answers by adding up the numbers you solved: 12 + 15 +24 = 51

Does it equal to 51 as stated in the question? Yes, answers check out.
