Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

-5X - 16 = 8x - 3

add 5x on both sides

⇒ -5X - 16+5x= 8x -3 + 5x

⇒ -16 = 13x -3

add 3 on both sides

⇒-16 + 3 = 13x -3 +3

⇒ -13 = 13x

divide both sides by 13

⇒ -13/13 =13x/13

∴ -1 = x

$\bold{\huge{\pink{\underline{ Solution}}}}$

$\bold{\underline{ Given :-}}$

A triangle with sides 11m, 13m and 18m

$\bold{\underline{ To \: Find :-}}$

We have to check it whether it is right angled triangle or not?

$\bold{\underline{ Let's \: Begin :-}}$

$\sf{\red{ In \:right \:angled\ : triangle, }}$

According to the Pythagoras theorem, The sum of the squares of perpendicular height and the square of the base of the triangle is equal to the square of hypotenuse that is sum of the squares of two small sides equal to the square of longest side of the triangle.

We imply it in the given triangle ,

$\sf{\red{ ( Perpendicular)² + (Base)² = (Hypotenuse)²}}$
