Which of the following sets of numbers could not represent the three sides of a right triangle?
{13, 84, 85}
{16, 63, 65}
{54, 72,90}
(8, 15, 16}

i can try and you the very best that i can.

i just took the test, the correct answer is .. 31.5 in.

solution:

the given function is ,

      =

the three roots of this quadratic function is , 0 ,8 and 10.all the roots are real and rational.

if a quadratic equation is of the form ,

sum of the roots = a + b +c= 0+8+10=18=  

product of roots taken two at a time = a b + b c+ c a = 0+80+0=80 =  

product of roots = a b c = 0=  

there are 11 doors in a hall starting from 0 to 11.the entry in the hall is permitted through gate number 0 and exit is allowed through only gate number 8 and 10.so, three roots(0,8,10) of quadratic function is given by entry and exit route of this hall.
