Answer: The given angles are

M = 64

N = 48

where P is unknown. While we don't know P at first, we can solve for it. Recall that for any triangle, the three angles always add to 180 degrees

M+N+P = 180

64+48+P = 180

112+P = 180

112+P-112 = 180-112

P = 68

-------------------------------------------

So in summary so far

M = 64

N = 48

P = 68

The shortest side is opposite the smallest angle. The side MP is opposite the smallest angle N = 48

The longest side is going to be opposite the largest angle. In this case, side MN is opposite the largest angle P = 68

The medium side is opposite the medium angle. So NP is the medium side length

-------------------------------------------------------

Final Answers:

Shortest Side = MP

Medium Side = NP

Longest Side = MN

See the attached image for a visual summary

The ascending order would be: MP, NP, MN

Note: Something like MP is the same as PM. The order of endpoints for any given individual segment doesn't matter

Limit   
STatiana [176]

Rationalize the numerator:

\dfrac{\sqrt{x+4}-2}x\cdot\dfrac{\sqrt{x+4}+2}{\sqrt{x+4}+2}=\dfrac{(\sqrt{x+4})^2-2^2}{x(\sqrt{x+4}+2)}=\dfrac x{x(\sqrt{x+4}+2)}=\dfrac1{\sqrt{x+4}+2}

This is continuous at x=0, so we can evaluate the limit directly by substitution:

\displaystyle\lim_{x\to0}\frac{\sqrt{x+4}-2}x=\lim_{x\to0}\frac1{\sqrt{x+4}+2}=\frac1{\sqrt4+2}=\frac14

What is the value is of x?<br><br> A)0<br><br> B)25<br><br> C)4<br><br> D)7
iogann1982 [59]

We know that these two angles are equal to each other (There is the "congruent" sign) so we can set them equal to each other and solve for x

3x - 17 = 25 - 3x

(3x + 3x) - 17 = 25 + (-3x + 3x)

6x + (- 17 + 17) = 25 + 17

6x/6 = 42/6

x = 7

Hope this helped!

Solve the following simultaneous equations: 1. a) x-y=-5 and x + y = -1​
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

x = -3, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x - y = -5

x = -5 + y

Let's put this into the other equation

(-5 + y) + y = -1

-5 + 2y = -1

2y = 4

y = 2

Now we can solve for x by plugging y into either equation

x + (2) = -1

x = -3
