Answer:
A. no
B. no
C. obtuse
Step-by-step explanation:
For side lengths to form a triangle, the sum of the shorter two must exceed the longest.
A. 5 + 8 = 13 . . . . a line segment, not a triangle
B. 7 + 12 < 26 . . . . no closure, not a triangle
C. 11 + 15 > 20 . . . . a triangle. A picture shows it to be obtuse
You can also compare 11² +15² vs 20² ⇒ 346 vs 400. The long side is too long for a right triangle, so the triangle must be obtuse. (The Pythagorean theorem tells you a right triangle with those legs would have a long side of √346 = 18.6.)
Answer: Meaghan is right.
Step-by-step explanation:
For a number like:
123.45
the tens place would be the "2" (second number at the left of the decimal point)
The ones place would be the "3" (first number at the left of the decimal point)
Let's suppose that Lily is correct.
Then the quotient of:
43.61/7
Will be a number with two digits in the left of the decimal point.
The smallest number that meets this condition, is the number 10.
Then let's see:
7*10 = 70
then:
70/7 = 10
and:
43.61 < 70
(70 is larger than 43.61)
then:
43.61/7 < 70/7 = 10
Then:
(43.61/7) < 10
This means that our quotient is smaller than 10, then the first digit of the quotient can not be on the tens place.
Then Meaghan is the correct one.
We also could perform the quotient to find:
43.61/7 = 6.23
So yes, Meaghan is correct.
A & b would be the congruent pair of angles
