The answer to the above question can be explained as under -
We know that, the sum of angles of triangle is 180°.
So, vertex angle plus base angles are equal are equal to 180°.
Let the vertex angle be represented by "v" and base angles be represented by "b".
Thus, v + b + b = 180°
So, v + 2b = 180°
Next, the question says, the vertex angle is 20° less than the sum of base angles.
Thus, 2b - 20° = v
<u>Thus, we can conclude that the correct option is A) v + 2b = 180°, 2b - 20° = v</u>

Answer:
GCHE
Step-by-step explanation:
The function, as presented here, is ambiguous in terms of what's being deivded by what. For the sake of example, I will assume that you meant
3x+5a
<span> f(x)= ------------
</span> x^2-a^2
You are saying that the derivative of this function is 0 when x=12. Let's differentiate f(x) with respect to x and then let x = 12:
(x^2-a^2)(3) -(3x+5a)(2x)
f '(x) = ------------------------------------- = 0 when x = 12
[x^2-a^2]^2
(144-a^2)(3) - (36+5a)(24)
------------------------------------ = 0
[ ]^2
Simplifying,
(144-a^2) - 8(36+5a) = 0
144 - a^2 - 288 - 40a = 0
This can be rewritten as a quadratic in standard form:
-a^2 - 40a - 144 = 0, or a^2 + 40a + 144 = 0.
Solve for a by completing the square:
a^2 + 40a + 20^2 - 20^2 + 144 = 0
(a+20)^2 = 400 - 144 = 156
Then a+20 = sqrt[6(26)] = sqrt[6(2)(13)] = 4(3)(13)= 2sqrt(39)
Finally, a = -20 plus or minus 2sqrt(39)
You must check both answers by subst. into the original equation. Only if the result(s) is(are) true is your solution (value of a) correct.
