Part A)The given equation is:
The radicand or discriminant(d) of the equation will be:
Since the discriminant is equal to 0, the given quadratic equation has only 1 root. In other words we can say the the given equation is a perfect square.
Part B)The given equation is:
We can solve this expression by factorization. Factors of middle term are to be made in such a way that their product equals the product of first and third term and sum is equal to the middle term i.e. product should be 4x² and sum should be -4x.
So the two such terms are -2x and -2x. Using the factors and simplifying the equation by taking common we get:
Answer:
A: 16
Step-by-step explanation:
difference is +12
4 + 12= 16
AFB, the sides are similar
Answer:
d.) simplify the expression inside the pipe symbols
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If we draw this triangle with Q as the vertex angle (the one at the top of the triangle) then the 2 sides are congruent and this is an iosceles triangle. Because this is an isosceles triangle, then the 2 base angles, angle R and angle S are congruent. If Q measures 114 degrees, then angles R and S together have to add up to the difference between 180 and 114:
180 - 114 = 66
Divide that in half so R = S = 33 degrees each
