Answer:

40 hens, 5 sheep

Step-by-step explanation:

40 x 2 = 80 (hens have 2 legs)

100 - 80 = 20 ----> 20 legs left for sheep,, sheep have 4 legs

20/4 = 5 so there are 5 sheep

The triangle above is isosceles and b&gt; a. Which<br> of the following must be FALSE?
kow [346]

If the triangle is isosceles and b is greater than a then,

(c) AC = BC is false.

An isosceles triangle in geometry is one with at least two equal-length sides. It can be defined as having exactly two equal-length sides or as having at least two equal-length sides, with the equilateral triangle being an exception to the second definition.

The triangle is an isosceles triangle and angle b is greater than angle b.

For option (A),

AB = BC, therefore a = c which is possible.

For option (B),

AB = AC, therefore b = c which is also possible.

For option (C),

AC = BC, therefore a =b.

But we have b > a. Hence AB  = BC is false.

For option (D),

a = c, therefore AB = BC which is possible according to the properties of an isosceles triangle.

Option (C) is false.
