Do not answer w/o explanation ! need written solution. in triangle abc, an altitude is drawn from vertex c to the line containing ab. the length of this altitude is h and h=ab. which of the following is true? i. triangle abc could be a right triangle. ii. angle c cannot be a right angle. iii. angle c could be less than 45 degrees.

We have altitude h to side AB and AB=h, i.e. the altitude is congruent to the side it goes to.

That's all kinds of triangles.  One way to see them is using two horizontal parallel lines h apart, the bottom one with a base AB=h somewhere on it.  Then any C on the top line makes a triangle ABC with altitude h=AB.

Let's go through the choices.

I. ABC could be a right triangle.  That's TRUE.

We could have the isoscleles right triangle, C directly above B, so AC is the leg and an altitude, AB=AC and B is the right angle.

II. Angle C cannot be a right angle.  That's TRUE.

The biggest angle C can be is when it's over the midpoint of AB, so if AB=2, h=2, and

so

III. Angle C could be less than 45 degrees.   That's TRUE.

As long as C stays on our top parallel, we can make it as acute as we like by going farther away from AB.

All true.  Hmmm.

answer: evaluate the objective function at each vertex to determine which - and -values, if any, maximize or minimize the function. example: find the minimum value and maximum value of the objective function f ( x , y ) = 4 x + 5 y , subject to the following constraints
