Answer:
length = 14 m
width = 7 m
Step-by-step explanation:
l = length
w = width
l = 2w - 8
w(2w - 8) = 42
2w² - 8w - 42 = 0
you can factor out a 2 to work with smaller numbers:
w² - 4w - 21 = 0
(w - 7)(w + 3) = 0
w = 7
'w' cannot equal a negative so we discount it as an answer
find length:
l = 2(7) - 8
l = 14 - 8 or 6m
A triangle can only have at most one right angle.
Here's a proof that shows why this is so:
We know that the sum of all interior angles of a triangle must add up to 180.
Let's say the interior angles are A, B, and C
A + B + C = 180
Let's show that having two right angles is impossible
Let A = B = 90
90 + 90 + C = 180
180 + C = 180
Subtract 180 from both sides
C = 0
We cannot have an angle with 0 degrees in a triangle. Thus, it is impossible to have 2 right angles in a triangle.
Let's try to show that it's impossible to have 3 right angles
Let A = B = C = 90
90 + 90 + 90 = 180 ?
270 ≠ 180
Thus it's impossible to have 3 right angles as well.
Let's show that is possible to have 1 right angle
Let A = 90
90 + B + C = 180
Subtract both sides by 90
B + C = 90
There are values of B and C that will make this true. Thus, a triangle can have at most one right angle.
Have an awesome day! :)
C is 20 degrees. Pls mark brainliest
