Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

If the triangle was a right angled triangle then we can prove it using the Pythagoras theorem: c² = a² + b²

c is the largest side and a and b are the two smaller sides of the triangle.

So if this is true then √72² + 154² should be 170:

170² = 72² + 154²

28900 = 5184 + 23716

28900 = 28900

So we have proved using Pythagoras theorem that the triangle is a right angled triangle.

Identify the property of equality that makes the Equation 1 and Equation 2 equivalent
Otrada [13]

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>To make both equivalent</u>.

For equation (I) multiply all through by 4

Now, from

x - 1/2 = x/4 + 3

it becomes

4(x) - 4(1/2) = 4(x/4) + 4(3)

--> 4x - 2 = x + 12.

This is your new equation (I) or you can call it equation (iii).

For equation (ii) multiply all through by 1 to make it equivalent to your new equation (I) or eqn (iii) if you wish.

Now from

4x - 2= x + 12

it becomes

1(4x) - 1(2) = 1(x) + 1(12)

--> 4x - 2 = x + 12

This is your new equation (ii) or you can call it equation (iv)

Therefore;

Equation 1 has to be multiplied by 4 and Equation 2 by 1 to make both equivalent.

New equation 1 is 4x-2=x+12

New equation 2 is 4x-2=x+12.
