Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the adjacent side length in cm
opposite side is x + 2 cm
hypotenuse is x + 4 cm
x² + (x + 2)² = (x + 4)²
x² + (x² + 4x + 4) = (x² + 8x + 16)
x² - 4x - 12 = 0
(x - 6)(x + 2) = 0
so either
x - 6 = 0 x = 6
or
x + 2 = 0 x = -2
positive answer is x = 6 as negative length does not make sense
opposite side is 6 + 2 = 8
hypotenuse is 6 + 4 = 10
perimeter is 6 + 8 + 10 = 24 cm
No sadly

3 is a prime number, it cannot be factored into other prime factors
Answer:
q = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
p + q = 36 → (1)
p - q = 20 → (2)
Add the 2 equations term by term
2p = 56 ( divide both sides by 2 )
p = 28
Substitute p = 28 into (1)
28 + q = 36 ( subtract 28 from both sides )
q = 8
