Answer:

x = 18or x = - 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 2x = 360 ( subtract 360 from both sides )

x² + 2x - 360 = 0 ← quadratic in standard form

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 360) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 2)

The factors are + 20 and - 18, since

20 × - 18 = - 360 and 20 - 18 = 2 , thus

(x + 20)(x - 18) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 20 = 0 ⇒ x = - 20

x - 18 = 0 ⇒ x = 18

Thus the number could be 18 or - 20

This question is far easier to understand if we draw it out. I've included an image attachment to help show the relationships of the measurements. As we can see from the image, their positioning helps form a triangle that we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the connection range.
The Theorem is $a^2 + b^2 = c^2$ where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse.

$22^2 + 50^2 = c^2$
$484 + 2500 = c^2$
$2984= c^2$
$\sqrt{2984} = c$
$54.63 = c$
So the answer to the nearest meter is 55 meters.

Construct parallelogram PQRS<br>with |PQ|=10cm, |ps|=8cm and<br><QPS = 120

Find sketch of parallelogram attached

Answer and explanation:

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral which is wider than it is long. A parallelogram has two sides parallel to the other. From the above, we are told the parallelogram PQRS has an angle QPS 120, with sides 10cm and 8cm, we use this to sketch the parallelogram

We find that angle QPS is 120 degrees hence angle RSP is 60 degrees since angle on straight line is 60 degrees from 180-120 in angle QPS and alternate angles are equal. Also opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal

o-na [289]

Answer:

$(x+3)^{2} +(y+5)^{2} =16$

Step-by-step explanation:

the general equation of a circle is

$(x-h)^{2} + (y-k)^{2} =r^{2}$

with (h,k) being the centre of the circle and r the radius
