Given:
The measure of three sides of a triangle are 8, 7 and 14.
To find:
The measure of the angle opposite the side of length 8.
Solution:
According to the Law of Cosine:

Let a=8, b=7 and c=14, then by using Law of Cosine, we get



Taking cos inverse on both sides.



Therefore, the measure of the angle opposite the side of length 8 is 22.6 degrees.
So, we know that a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Right? That is called the Pythagorean Theorem.
In this case. We can say that 39 is a, 40 is b, and x is c.
NOTE: It doesn't really matter whether 39 is a or b. a & b are just the two legs of the right triangle.
So, if we say that 39 is a, 40 is b, and x is c. We can plug it into the Pythagorean Theorem.
39^2 + 40^2 = x^2
I'll let you take it from there.

Step-by-step explanation:
hope this helps!
=4m - 17+ 3m - 11
combine like terms
=(4m + 3m) + (-17 - 11)
=7m - 28
This can be factored/simplified by dividing everything by 7
=7(m - 4)
Hope this helps! :)
