(I crossed simplify)
Next cross multiply;
3b = 1
b = 1/3
To check if the statement is true just substitute the value of b in the equation;
3b = 1
3(1/3) = 1
1 = 1
X^2 + 4x + 8 = 0
( x + 2 ) ( x + 2 ) = 0
i am a mathematics teacher. if anything to ask please pm me
Answer:
A=9in,b =9in
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a right angled triangle
Formula = a2×b2=c2 (ie sq of both adj sides equals the sq of the longest side)
So, a2 × b2 = c2
But both sides are equal, so we can as well say 2(a2) = (9|2)^2
2a^2 = 162
Divide through by 2
A^2 = 81
So, a = |81
A = 9
And since both sides are equal, a = b = 9
