Answer:

-5 -√8  or ≈ -7.83

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Solving the quadratic equation, to find its roots:</u>

  • x^2 + 10x + 25 = 8           ⇒ The left side is perfect square
  • (x+5)^2=8                         ⇒ Getting square root of both sides
  • x+5 = ± √8                       ⇒ There are 2 roots
  • x = - 5 ± √8

<u>The smallest root is:</u>

  • x= -5 - √8 ≈ -7.83

an angle bisector of a triangle divides the opposite side of the triangle into segments 6 cm and 5cm long. A second side of the
rodikova [14]
There is a not so well-known theorem that solves this problem.

The theorem is stated as follows:
"Each angle bisector of a triangle divides the opposite side into segments proportional in length to the adjacent sides"  (Coxeter & Greitzer)

This means that for a triangle ABC, where angle A has a bisector AD such that D is on the side BC, then 
BD/DC=AB/AC

Here either
BD/DC=6/5=AB/AC, where  AB=6.9,  
then we solve for  AC=AB*5/6=5.75,

or

BD/DC=6/5=AB/AC, where  AC=6.9,  
then we solve for AB=AC*6/5=8.28

Hence, the longest and shortest possible lengths of the third side are
8.28 and 5.75 units respectively.
