Area = length *width
A = x²
3x² = (x+10)(x+12)
3x² = x²+10x+12x+120
3x² = x²+22x+120
3x²-3x² = x²+22x+120-3x²
0 = -2x²+22x+120
Factor to solve for x: 
-2(x²-11x-60)
(x+4)(x-15)
x = -4  & x = 15 but we can't have a negative length so we eliminate 4. The length of the square is 15 cm.

The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "<span>The missing digit is 3."</span>

The missing digit is represented by A  ⇒  $1A2, where A represents a whole number from 0 to 9.

Try substituting any number from 0 to 9 for A (the middle digit or tens place) , then divide by 11 members.

<span>Option 2:  A = 3  ⇒  $1 </span><span>3 </span>2
$ 132 ÷ 11 = $12

The only one-digit that gives a whole number quotient when it takes the place of tens digit in $1 __2  is<span> 3.</span><span>   Because $ 132 ÷ 11 = $ 12. (Option 2)</span>

The missing digit is 3.

Determine the number of possible triangles, ABC, that can be formed given A = 150°, a = 7, and b = 4.

When  you have the length of two sides and the angle between them, the triangle is totally determined. This is, there is only one segment that can complete the triangle: its length and position is totally fixed.
