Refer to the figure shown below.
We shall review each of the three given measurements and decide what type of triangle we have.

Measurement a.
a=3, b=4, c=5.
For a right triangle, c² = a² + b² (Pythagorean theorem)
a² + b² = 3² + 4² = 9 + 16 = 25
c² = 5² = 25
Answer:
This is a right triangle, because c² = a² + b².

Measurement b.
a=5, b=6, c=7.
For an acute triangle, c² < a² + b².
a² + b² = 5² + 6² = 25 + 36 = 61
c² = 7² = 49
Answer:
This is an acute triangle, because c² < a² + b².

Measurement c.
a=8, b=9, c=12.
For an obtuse triangle, c² > a² + b².
a² + b² = 8² + 9² = 64 + 81 = 145
c² = 12² = 144
Answer:
This is an acute triangle because c² < a² + b².

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.

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

X<-5

Step-by-step explanation:

1) open the brackets

2) take -35 to the other side with -10

where it turns to be -5X<-10+35

3) work out to find -5X<25

4) divide both sides by -5

to find X<-5

Which expression is equivalent to a^m divide a^n?(20points)
Citrus2011 [14]
<h3><u>Answer</u> :</h3>

<h3><u>Learn More</u> :</h3>

\dag\sf\:\:a^m\times a^n=a^{m+n}

\dag\sf\:\:\dfrac{a^m}{a^n}=a^{m-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^{n-m}}

\dag\sf\:\:a^{-m}=\dfrac{1}{a^m}

\dag\sf\:\:(a^{m})^n=a^{mn}

\dag\sf\:\:a^1=a

\dag\sf\:\:a^0=1

\dag\sf\:\:\sqrt[n]{a^m}=a^{\frac{m}{n}}

What i
shusha [124]

Answer:

Answer: B, 6/11

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Well we know that 3+2+1=6+3=9.</em>

<em>So that means we will add the 2 brown crayons to the denominator.</em>

<em>The denominator before we added 2 to it, it was 9 as a common denominator. If we want to get the common numerator we are going to have to add the top and that will become 9 then you will have to subtract that by 3</em>

<em>6/11 is also the smallest number that you can get.</em>

<em>You can turn the fraction into a decimal and have it that way to make it easier.</em>

<em>When you turn a fraction into a decimal the number is always the same but with comparing numbers it is a lot easier to do than comparing fractions</em>

Hope this helps, and if it did I would appreciate it if you marked me as Brainllest. Have a wonderful day!
