Which first step most directly leads to the solution of the equation below? x^2 – 16 = 65

A. Add 16 to both sides of the equation.

B. Add -x^2 to both sides of the equation.

C. Rewrite the left-hand side as (x - 4)(x+4)

D. Rewrite the left-hand side as (x - 4)^2​

solution:

we have to construct

∠m nt ≅ ∠p qr

the steps to draw this construction are

step 1: use a compass to draw an arc from point q which intersects the side pq at point a and the side qr at point b.

step 2: draw a segment nt and use the same width of the compass to draw an arc from point n which intersects the segment nt at a point x.

step 3:

step 4: join points n and y using a straightedge.

step 3:

option (d).maintaining the same width of the compass as ab, draw an arc from point x such that it intersects the arc drawn from n in a point y.

to draw   congruent angles , 1. width of compasses while drawing two angles should be same i.e from point at which angle has to be drawn, 2.the distance between the two points where the compass intersects the two sides should be same while drawing any two congruent angles.

answer: he is 272195

step-by-step explanation: all you have to do is multiple 3535 and 77 and it equals 272195
