the answer is 63.96
because 20% of 79.95 is 15.99
From the description given for the triangle above, I think the type of triangle that is represented would be a right triangle. This type of triangle contains a right angle and two acute angles. In order to say or prove that it is a right triangle, it should be able to satisfy the Pythagorean Theorem which relates the sides of the triangle. It is expressed as follows:
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
where c is the hypotenuse or the longest side and a, b are the two shorter sides.
To prove that the triangle is indeed a right triangle, we use the equation above.
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
c^2 = 20^2 = 10^2 + (10sqrt(3))^2
400 = 100 + (100(3))
400 = 400
6 times as many as 7 is 42 is your comparison sentence
