Use the pythagoream theorem to check. a^2+b^2=c^2
a=15 b=36 c= 39
225+1296=1521
The equation is true so it is a right triangle.
Alright remember, if any individual factor on the left side of the equation is equal to 0, the entire expression will be equal to 0.
k+1=0
k-5=0
Set the first factor equal to 0 and solve
k=-1
Set the next factor equal to 0 and solve
k=5
The final solution is all the values that make (k+1)(k-5)=0 true.
k=-1, 5
Hope this helped you out :)
The sum of -3 and a number equal to -91 is -88
