Answer:

440

Step-by-step explanation:

The average of the integers is the odd integer between them. That is found by dividing their sum by 2:

42/2 = 21

The even integers are 20 and 22. Their product is 20∙22 = 440.

Step 3 has an error.

Step-by-step explanation:

Similarity-criteria of triangles:

1. All the corresponding angles of two triangles should be equal.

2. The ratio between the corresponding sides of two triangles should be equal.

In $\triangle ABC$ and $\triangle BDC$

$\angle BAC = \angle DBC \\\angle ACB = \angle BCD$

All the angles of triangle are equal.

∴ $\triangle ABC \sim \triangle BDC$

Since, $\triangle ABC \sim \triangle BDC$

$\frac{AC}{BC}=\frac{AC}{DC}$

$BC^{2}=AC \times DC$

In $\triangle ABC$ and $\triangle BDA$ ,

$\fbox{\begin\\ \angle ABC= \angle BDA = 90^{\circ}\end{minispace}}$

$\fbox{\begin \\\angle BAC = \angle BAD\\\end{minispace}}$

$\angle ACB = \angle ABD$

All the angles of triangle are equal.

∴ $\fbox{\begin\triangle ABC \sim \triangle BDA \end{minispace}}$

∵ $\triangle ABC \sim \triangle BDA$

$\frac{AC}{AB}=\frac{AB}{AD}$

$AB^{2}=AC \times AD$

Now, $AB^{2}+BC^{2}$ can be simplified as,

$AB^{2}+BC^{2}=AC \times AD+AC \times DC\\AB^{2}+BC^{2}=AC(AD+DC)\\AB^{2}+BC^{2}=AC(AC)\\AB^{2}+BC^{2}=AC^{2}$
