Answer:
b is 0
Step-by-step explanation:
yes, i am here :)
Let garret’s age be x
x + 2 + (x + 3) + 2 = 39
2x + 7 = 39
2x = 32
x = 32/2
x = 16
Garrett’s age after two years = 16 + 2 = 18
To test if this is a right triangle, let's test these side lengths with the Pythagorean Theorem.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
c is the hypotenuse, the longest side of a right triangle.
a and b are the legs of the right triangle.
a = 7
b = 15
c = 17
7^2 + 15^2 = 17^2 ?
49 + 225 = 289 ?
274 ≠ 289
Thus, this triangle is not a right triangle since it does not satisfy the Pythagorean Theorem.
Have an awesome day! :)
