-144= -1×2a×3b
144=2a×3b
144= 6ab
24= ab
a,b could b any two factors that have a product of 24
For example a,b could = 6,4 or 8,3 or 24,1
Answer:
This question is tricky because it could have multiple answers: for example is a,b= 6,4 then a+b= 10, but if a,b=24+1=25. So, the answer is that the sum of a+b varies depending on which 2 factors of 24 a and b are equal to. Does this make sense?
The angles of a triangle always add up to 180°.
120 + x + 16 + x = 180
Add up the values.
136 + 2x = 180
Subtract 136 from both sides.
2x = 44
Divide both sides by 2.
x = 22
I'm guessing you find the length of the hypotenuse using the pythagorean theorem.
a² + b² = c² a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
15² + 8² = c²
225 + 64 = c²
289 = c²
√289 = √c²
17 = c
hope that helps, God bless!
Yes all equilateral triangles are congruent. You can prove congruence with two congruent angles and all equilateral triangles will have 60º angles. Which is enough to prove similarity
