Given that the sides of the acute triangle are as follows:
21 cm
x cm
2x cm

Stated that 21 cm is one of the shorter sides of the triangle2x is greater than x, so it follows that 2x MUST be the longest side


For acute triangles, the longest side must be less than the sum of the 2 shorter sides
Therefore, 2x < x + 21cm
2x – x < 21cm
x < 21cm

If x < 21cm, then 2x < 42cm
Therefore, the longest possible length for the longest side is 42cm

The lights go out, your bedroom is pitch dark, yet you still need to find a pair of socks, in your drawer there is 25 white sock
Lerok [7]

Answer: At most 3

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 25 white socks and 25 red socks, a matching pair would be picked in at most 3 times.

The first sock you pick would be either White or Red

The second sock you pick would be either white or red again which means that you now either have 2 whites, 2 reds or 1 white and 1 red.

The third sock you pick will either be white or red once more. At this point you will either have 3 whites, 3 reds, 2 whites and 1 red or 2 reds and 1 white.

You will therefore have at least a matching pair after 3 tries.
