Step-by-step explanation:
A quadrilateral is made up of four sides. This means the sum of all the side equals 43. This is given as;
(x + 7) + (x² - 2x
) + (x +3) + (2x - 2) = 43
x² - 2x + 4x + 8 = 43
x² - 2x - 35 = 0
Upon solving for x by factorization;
( x - 5) ( x + 7) = 0
The values of x are; 5 and - 7
Since the side of shape cannot have a negative value, -7 is ignored.
x = 5
The length of the sides are;
- X+7 = 5 + 7 = 12
- x² - 2x = 5² - 2(5) = 25 - 10 = 15
- X+3 = 5 + 3 = 8
2x-2 = 2(5) - 2 = 10 -2 = 8
Check:
8 + 8 + 15 + 12 = 43
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the converse of Pythagoras' identity.
If the longest side squared is equal to the sum of the squares of the other 2 sides then the triangle is right.
The longest side = 61, thus
61² = 3721
12² + 60² = 144 + 3600 = 3744 ≠ 3721
Thus these sides do not form a right triangle.
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
I first took away 60 from 195, as she already had 60 points. Than we were left with 135 points and since she gets 13.5 points every time she visits, I divided 135 by 13, which gives us 10.
