Question 1
It won't be completely simplified, because 8 can be factored further, so I would say the answer is "no"
A much better factorization would be
sqrt(72) = sqrt(36*2)
since 36 is the largest perfect square factor of 72
If you're curious how it simplifies, then it would do so like this
sqrt(72) = sqrt(36*2)
sqrt(72) = sqrt(36)*sqrt(2)
sqrt(72) = 6*sqrt(2)
Note: "sqrt" is shorthand for "square root"
==============================================
Question 2
For monomials like this, we simply cut the exponent in half, or we divide by 2.
28/2 = 14
Therefore, sqrt(x^28) = x^14
The given expression simplifies to x^14

Answer:
Angle Angle Angle (AAA) property
Step-by-step explanation:
A right angled triangle is a triangle that has one of its angles to equal
. It could be in the form of an isosceles triangle or an acute angled triangle.
The given question compares the congruence properties of two triangles, KOM and LNM.
Thus,
<KOM = <LNM (right angle theorem)
<LMN = <KMO (common angles to both triangles)
⇒ <OKM = <NLM (property of a triangle i.e sum of angle in a triangle is
)
ΔKOM = ΔLNM (congruence property)
Therefore, by angle angle angle (AAA) congruence property, the two triangles are similar.

Explanation:
Refer to the diagram below.
Draw a line through point D such that it is perpendicular to side BC. This new line intersects BC at point E.
In other words, E is on BC such that segments DE and BC are perpendicular.
Notice how triangle CED is a right triangle with legs DE and EC. The hypotenuse is DC = 16.
Let h be the height of the trapezoid. It's also the height of triangle CED where EC is the base. In other words, h = length of DE.
--------------------------------------
Focus on triangle CED. We'll use the sine ratio to find h
sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(C) = DE/DC
sin(30) = h/16
0.5 = h/16
0.5*16 = h
8 = h
h = 8
The height of triangle CED is 8, so the height of the trapezoid is also 8.
--------------------------------------
Apply the area of a trapezoid formula
Area = height*(base1+base2)/2
A = h*(b1+b2)/2
A = 8*(27+21)/2
A = 8(48)/2
A = 8*24
A = 192
The trapezoid's area is 192 square units
