Option I
(3x+4)cm =(2x+10)cm
3x-2x=6
x=6
Option II
(3x+4)= (x+12)
3x-x=12-4
2x=8
x=4
Option III
(2x+10)= (x+12)
2x-x=12-10
x=2

Isosceles triangles, are triangles where two of the lengths are the same so we can say that:
1. (3x+4)=(2x+10)
2. (3x+4)=(x+12)
3. (2x+10)=(x+12)
One of these must be true. Solve as simultaneous equations.
1. x=6
2. x=4
3. x=2

How to evaluate the limit

anzhelika [568]

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to2}\frac{x^2-x+6}{x+2}$

Both the numerator and denominator are continuous at $x=2$ , which means the quotient rule for limits applies:

$\dfrac{\displaystyle\lim_{x\to2}(x^2-x+6)}{\displaystyle\lim_{x\to2}(x+2)}=\dfrac{2^2-2+6}{2+2}=\dfrac84=2$

Perhaps you meant to write that $x\to-2$ instead? In that case, you would have

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to-2}\frac{x^2-x+6}{x+2}=\lim_{x\to-2}\frac{(x+2)(x-3)}{x+2}=\lim_{x\to-2}(x-3)=-2-3=-5$
