Factor the equation:
(x-6)(x+1)

Check:
-6+1=-5
-6*1=-6

Use the zero product property
x-6=0
x=6

x+1=0
x=-1

Final answer: x=-1, x=6

Joshua finds the perimeter of the following composite figure composed of a square and right triangle so that a braid may be cut
Bumek [7]

The perimeter of a shape is the sum of its side lengths.

<em>Joshua miscalculated the third length of the triangle</em>

First, we calculate the third length (x) of the triangle.

Because the triangle is right-angled, we can make use of Pythagoras.

So we have:

x^2 = 7^2 + 7^2

x^2 = 2(7^2)

Take square roots of both sides

x = \sqrt{2(7^2)

x = 7\sqrt{2

The other shape in the figure is a square.

So, the perimeter (P) is

P = 7 + x + x + x + 7 ---- i.e. the sum of the visible lengths

So, we have:

P = 7 + 7\sqrt2 + 7\sqrt2 + 7\sqrt2+ 7

Evaluate like terms:

P = 14 + 21\sqrt2

Hence, Joshua's error is that:

<em>He miscalculated the third length of the triangle</em>
