Answer:

The correct answer is option A. Base = 11 cm and height = 13 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, height of a triangle is 2 cm more than its base.Then height is increased by 2 cm.Then the area of triangle becomes 82.5 cm²

<u>To find the base an d height of original triangle</u>

Let x be the original base 'b' then the height  h = x + 2

New height h = x + 2 + 2 = x + 4

Area = bh/2

82.5= (x(x + 4)/2

165 = x² + 4x

x + 4x - 165 = 0

Solving we get x = 11 and x = -15

Take positive value x = 11

Therefore base = 11 and height = x + 2 = 13 cm

The correct answer is option A. Base = 11 cm and height = 13 cm

Please help me now ! Thank you

First we'll do two basic steps. Step 1 is to subtract 18 from both sides. After that, divide both sides by 2 to get x^2 all by itself. Let's do those two steps now

2x^2+18 = 10
2x^2+18-18 = 10-18 <<--- step 1
2x^2 = -8
(2x^2)/2 = -8/2 <<--- step 2
x^2 = -4

At this point, it should be fairly clear there are no solutions. How can we tell? By remembering that x^2 is never negative as long as x is real. 

Using the rule that negative times negative is a positive value, it is impossible to square a real numbered value and get a negative result. 

For example
2^2 = 2*2 = 4
8^2 = 8*8 = 64
(-10)^2 = (-10)*(-10) = 100
(-14)^2 = (-14)*(-14) = 196

No matter what value we pick, the result is positive. The only exception is that 0^2 = 0 is neither positive nor negative.

So x^2 = -4 has no real solutions. Taking the square root of both sides leads to

x^2 = -4
sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(-4)
|x| = sqrt(4)*sqrt(-1)
|x| = 2*i
x = 2i or x = -2i
which are complex non-real values
