Answer is Retrograde motion

Most of the time planet moves in expected path near the ecliptic which is east to west. Some times each planet turns around and moves to the east for a period of time, then it turns around to head in west direction again making a loop or zig-zag against the star background. This is called retrograde motion. Thus retrograde motion is the change of direction of the planets in loop.

Answer this question .please please in 25 min . It should be a Summary
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Let "a", "b" and "с"  be sides of the triangle ("с" is the longest side).

The triangle will be:

right if       a² + b² = c²

аcute if     a² + b² > c²    

obtuse if   a² + b² < c²    

a.

a=3, b=4 and c=5

a² + b² = 3² + 4² = 9 + 16 = 25   and   c² = 5² = 25

25 = 25   ⇒  right triangle.

b.

a=5, b=6 and c=7

a² + b² = 5² + 6² = 25 + 36 = 61   and   c² = 7² = 49

61 > 49   ⇒  аcute triangle.

c.

a=8, b=9 and c=12

a² + b² = 8² + 9² = 64 + 81 = 145   and   c² = 12² = 144

145 > 144   ⇒  аcute triangle.
