Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the formula for an arithmetic sequence which will be:

a + (n - 1)d

where a = unknown

n = 6

d = 4

We then slot them into the formula

a + (6 - 1)4 = 12

a + 5(4) = 12

a + 20 = 12

a = 12 - 20

a = -8

The 6 numbers are

1st term = -8

2nd term = -8 + 4 = -4

3rd term = -4 + 4 = 0

4th term = 0 + 4 = 4

5th term = 4 + 4 = 8

6th term = 8 + 4 = 12

In a right triangle (a triangle that has a ninety degree angle in it) the the square of the side opposite the right angle is always equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. Therefore, we can use the information we are given to figure out the missing side:

$15^2=225\\9^2=81\\225-81=144\\\sqrt[2]{144}=12$
