Answer:

n = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am assuming that the sum is 255.

The last term is 128 and the common ratio is 2 so we can work backwards until we reach a sum of 255.

Term n = 128 so the previous term must be 128/2 = 64.

So following this pattern we have:

128 + 64 + 32 + 16 + 8 + 4 + 2 + 1 = 255.

So we see that n = 8.

Can 12,18,30 be a right triangle

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A set of three integers that can be the lengths of the sides of a right triangle is called a Pythagorean triple. The simplest Pythagorean triple is the set “3, 4, 5.” These numbers are the lengths of the sides of a “3-4-5” Pythagorean right triangle. The list below contains all of the Pythagorean triples in which no number is greater than 50.

3, 4, 5

5, 12, 13 6, 8, 10

Show why the set “6,8,10” is a Pythagorean triple.

c2 = a2 + b2 102 =82 +62 100 = 64 + 36 100 = 100

Since the Pythagorean equation is satisfied, the set “6,8,10” is a Pythagorean triple.
