Okay so first you need to find your prrs which in this case would be all factors of 360 and all of the factors of 360 divided by two since the factors of two are two and one. (Which I pulled from the first x’s coefficient)

Then you do Descartes law to find out how many positives or negatives in this equation. There looks to be 2 positives and 3 or 0 negatives. Since there are guaranteed positives I’d recommend doing those first. Start from the lowest number since that’s easier and more mathematically correct and do synthetic division. (x+1) The resulting polynomial should be factorable and of not then try to synthetically divide again.

Prove that when x> 1, a triangle with side lengths a = x2 - 1, b = 2x, and C = x2 + 1 is a right triangle. Use the Pythagorea
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

If the triangle is right then the square of the longest side (hypotenuse) will equal the sum of the squares of the other 2 sides.

longest side is x² + 1, then

(x² + 1)² = x^{4} + 2x² + 1

The sum of the square of the other 2 sides

(x² - 1)² + (2x)²

= x^{4} - 2x² + 1 + 4x² = x^{4} + 2x² + 1

Hence triangle is right

Yes because the triangle with the sides of 15 and 33 is just an enlarged triangle of the other one.
