Answer:

A)4

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming all edges are integral values

The most basic right angles triangle with integral edges is

(3,4,5)

as it obeys pythogores theorem

which is

a^{2}+ b^{2} =c^{2} \\\text{where c is the hypotenuse}\\\text{and a and b are the other side}

3^{2} +4^{2} =5^{2}

Now, double each edge,it will still remain a right angled triangle since it will still obey pythogores theorem

so the edges are (4,6,10)

⇒4 cm is the short leg of a integral right triangle with hypotenuse 10 cm

one interior angle of a polygon is a right angle and each of the other interior angles is 126°. Calculate the number of sides of
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

There are 7 sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's Use the formula that states that the sum of the angles of an n-sided polygon is given by.

S=(n−2)180

Since we are given that the two angles are right, the angles and each of the remaining angles is 144.

And Therefore, the sum is:

S=90

(n−2)144

(n−2)180

=90

+90

+(n−2)144

⇒(n−2)180

−(n−2)144

=180

⇒(n−2)(180

−144

)=180

⇒(n−2)(36

=180

⇒n−2=

36

180

​⇒n−2=5

⇒n=5+2=7

Hence, the polygon has 7 sides.

Find one value of x that is a solution to the equation:<br>(x^2– 8)^2 + x^2 – 8 = 20<br>x=​
Kipish [7]

Answer:

x = 2 sqrt(3) or x = -2 sqrt(3) or x = sqrt(3) or x = -sqrt(3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

-8 + x^2 + (x^2 - 8)^2 = 20

Expand out terms of the left hand side:

x^4 - 15 x^2 + 56 = 20

Subtract 20 from both sides:

x^4 - 15 x^2 + 36 = 0

Substitute y = x^2:

y^2 - 15 y + 36 = 0

The left hand side factors into a product with two terms:

(y - 12) (y - 3) = 0

Split into two equations:

y - 12 = 0 or y - 3 = 0

Add 12 to both sides:

y = 12 or y - 3 = 0

Substitute back for y = x^2:

x^2 = 12 or y - 3 = 0

Take the square root of both sides:

x = 2 sqrt(3) or x = -2 sqrt(3) or y - 3 = 0

Add 3 to both sides:

x = 2 sqrt(3) or x = -2 sqrt(3) or y = 3

Substitute back for y = x^2:

x = 2 sqrt(3) or x = -2 sqrt(3) or x^2 = 3

Take the square root of both sides:

Answer: x = 2 sqrt(3) or x = -2 sqrt(3) or x = sqrt(3) or x = -sqrt(3)
