What is 12m plus 9n-4-10m plus 6n?

12m + 9n - 4 - 10m + 6n = 2m + 15n - 4


What is the height of a triangle that has a base of 16m and a area of 64m?

Height is 2m


What is the area of a regular hexagon if each side has length 2?

Please be more specific with your question. If you mean 2cm, then the area will be 12cm squared. If you mean 2m then the area will be 12m squared.


What could not be the lengths of the sides of a right triangle 9ft 12ft 15ft or 4cm 7.5cm 8.5cm or 5in 10in 15in or 1.5m 2m 2.5m?

5" by 10" by 15" cannot be a right angled triangle because the square of the hypotenuse (longest side) must be equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.Proof:152 = 22552 + 102 = 25 + 100 = 125225 is not equal to 125 so the triangle is not a right angled triangle.All the others are right-angled triangles:92 + 122 = 152 [81 + 144 = 225]42 + 7.52 = 8.52 [16 + 56.25 = 72.25]1.52 + 22 = 2.52 [2.25 + 4 = 6.25]Answer9ft, 12ft, 15ft9² + 12² = 81 + 144= 225= 15²Which agrees with Pythagoras' Theorem, so this is a right-angled triangle.4cm, 7.5cm, 8.5cm4² + 7.5² = 16 + 56.25= 72.25= 8.5²Which agrees with Pythagoras' Theorem, so this is a right-angled triangle.5in, 10in, 15inThis one doesn't obey the triangle inequality, so it isn't a triangle at all. Anything that isn't a triangle isn't a right-angled triangle, and therefore we don't need to check it against Pythagoras' Theorem. But just to be thorough:5² + 10² = 25 + 100= 12515² = 225≠ 125Which disagrees with Pythagoras' Theorem, so this is not a right-angled triangle.1.5m, 2m, 2.5m1.5² + 2² = 2.25 + 4= 6.25= 2.5²Which agrees with Pythagoras' Theorem, so this is a right-angled triangle.


2m is 50 cm?

2m is 200cm..
