Let the integers be x and y. Then x + y = 5 and x – y = -21. Adding both equations gives 2x = -16, so x = -8. Substituting yields y = 13. The numbers are -8 and ...

The shaded fraction is 1/5. The parallel lines connecting vertices and opposite midpoints are perpendicular, dividing the square into five congruent smaller squares by geometric dissection, making the central shaded square exactly one-fifth of the total area. Class 9 Maths Ganita ...
Method 1: 180° edge rotations place all four interior angles around each shared vertex, summing to 360° without gaps or overlaps. Methods 2 and 3: Parallelograms tile the plane, so positioning copies preserves edge congruences and seamlessly tiles the entire ...
(i) If a segment joining two sides is parallel to the third side and half its length, it connects their midpoints. (ii) “If PQ ∥ BC, then Q is the midpoint of AC”; represented as: If (P MID) and (PRLL), ...
For n = 5, sum is 540°; for n = 6, 720°; for n = 7, 900°. General formula: (n – 2) × 180°. Proof: Drawing all diagonals from a single vertex divides the n-gon into n – 2 triangles, ...
