The greatest possible side length is 24 square piece

To solve this equation , we need to write it in quadratic form

To get the equation in quadratic form we replace x^2 with u

can be written as
, Replace u for x^2
So equation becomes

Now we factor the left hand side
-16 and -1 are the two factors whose product is +16 and sum is -17
(u-16) (u-1) = 0
u -16 = 0 so u=16
u-1 =0 so u=1
WE assume u = x^2, Now we replace u with x^2
Now take square root on both sides , x= +4 and x=-4
Now take square root on both sides , x= +1 and x=-1
So zeros of the function are -4, -1, 1, 4
Answer: No
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 2 sides together. If the sum of greater than the length of the 3rd side for all 3 options it can form a right triangle if it doesn’t than it can’t:
9 + 12 = 21 which is not greater than the 3rd side length of 21 so this cannot form a right triangle.
