Ratios of Area of the two squares = 25:9
So then let the areas be A1 = 25A and A2 = 9A, A is common element
Side of the smaller area S2 = 30 meters
Area of the smaller square A2 = 30 x 30 = 900
We have area of smaller square as 9A = 900 => A = 100
Area of the large square = 25A = 25 x 100 = 2500.
Hence S1^2 = 2500 => S1 = 50 meters which is 20 meters longer than the
side of the smaller square.
The measurement of <ABC is 50 degrees
Okay, so let's go over multiplying negative numbers. A positive times a positive is a positive, right? But a negative times a negative is also a positive. Only a negative times a positive (or a positive times a negative) gives you a negative number. So, we know that one of our 2 numbers in this question must be negative; the other must be positive.
Let's now take a look at the factors of -147, starting with the positives. Obviously, -147 and 1 are factors: -147 * 1 = -147. What other factors of -147 are there?
What about 7? Try it: -147 / 7 = -21. So here are two factors: -21, and 7. They multiply to -147. Do they add up to -14? Let's see: -21+7 = 7+(-21) = 7-21= -14. Yup, that works!
Answer: -21 and 7
