The sides of the triangle are given as 1, x, and x².
The principle of triangle inequality requires that the sum of the lengths of any two sides should be equal to, or greater than the third side.
Consider 3 cases
Case (a): x < 1,
Then in decreasing size, the lengths are 1, x, and x².
We require that x² + x ≥ 1
Solve x² + x - 1 =
x = 0.5[-1 +/- √(1+4)] = 0.618 or -1.618.
Reject the negative length.
Therefore, the lengths are 0.382, 0.618 and 1.
Case (b): x = 1
This creates an equilateral triangle with equal sides
The sides are 1, 1 and 1.
Case (c): x>1
In increasing order, the lengths are 1, x, and x².
We require that x + 1 ≥ x²
Solve x² - x - 1 = 0
x = 0.5[1 +/- √(1+4)] = 1.6118 or -0.618
Reject the negative answr.
The lengths are 1, 1.618 and 2.618.
Answer:
The possible lengths of the sides are
(a) 0.382, 0.618 and 1
(b) 1, 1 and 1.
(c) 2.618, 1.618 and 1.

In the field of astronomy, the ability to measure angles accurately and precisely enables us to calculate the position and relative movement of the stars and galaxies in relation to each other, to determine how far distant they are from us, and even to estimate their relative size.
You can a linear equation when the line go between the margin and when it have a straight line
Answer:
40 Operators
Step-by-step explanation:
if 10 operators worked on 120 pages for 2 hours
P operators will work on the same pages for 30min
note: 2hrs= 120min
10×120min/120= P × 30/120
- cross multiply
- make P subject of the formula
P= 10×120×120/120×30
P = 40 operators
