Answer:
x = 3
This triangle ABC will be a right triangle as its sides obey the Pythagoras theorem.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume that the triangle Δ ABC has vertices A(x,3), B(-3,-1) and C(-1,-4) and it is a right triangle.
We have to determine x.
Applying the Pythagoras Theorem,
AB² + BC² = AC² {If AC is the hypotenuse of the right triangle}
⇒ [(x + 3)² + 4²] + [(- 2)² + 3²} = (x + 1)² + 7²
⇒ x² + 6x + 38 = x² + 2x + 50
⇒ 4x = 12
⇒ x = 3 (Answer)
This triangle ABC will be a right triangle as its sides obey the Pythagoras theorem. (Answer)
If a line is drawn across the shape connecting two of the angles it makes two triangles. The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.
Since this shape makes two triangles the sum of the inside angles is 2 * 180 = 360 degrees
(2x - 17) + 90 + x + 59 = 360
combine like terms
3x + 132 = 360
3x = 360 - 132
3x = 228
x = 76
Answer:
x=2, x=-3, or x=3.5
