Answer:

first number = 78

second number = 72

third number = 156

Step-by-step explanation:

first number = a

second number = b

third number = c

we have

b=a-6   equation 1

c=2a     equation 2

a+b+c=306    equation 3

using equation 1 and equation 2 in equation 3 we have

a+a-6+2a=306

4a=306+6

4a=312

a=312/4

a=78= first number

b=78-6=72=second number

c=2*(78)=156 third number

Show that the triangle below is not a right-angled triangle.
Paha777 [63]

Step-by-step explanation:

A right triangle is a triangle in which one of the angles is a 90∘ angle.

(5x - 8)  + (2x - 5)  + (2x  + 3) = 180 \\ 9x - 10 = 180 \\ 9x = 190 \\ x =  \frac{190}{9}  \\ x = 21.11

(5x - 8) =97.56  \\ (2x - 5)  =37.22  \\ (2x + 3) =45.22  \\

Since None of the angels is 90° , so the triangle is not a right triangle.
