can assume that his and Vanessa’s paces should end up in the same place. If I sketch out this scenario on paper, I see that I have a right triangle with 2x + 6 being the length of the hypotenuse, and 2x + 4 being the legs of the triangle. I now can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for x. The Pythagorean Theorem states that in every right triangle with legs of length a and b and hypotenuse of c, these lengths have the relationship of a2 + b2 = c2. So if I put these measurements into the

Exactly one solution exists, and a right triangle is determined. This occurs, for example, when a = 3 , b = 3 , and B = 45 o . 3. If the side opposite the given angle is shorter than the other given side, but longer than in case (2), then < 1 , and two triangles are determined, one in which A = x o , and one in which A = 180 o - x o . 4. If the side opposite the given angle is equal in length to the other given side, then A = B , and one isosceles triangle is determined. 5. If the side opposite
