The ancient Egyptians had a neat way to construct right angles. They would make a long rope with knots to
make 12 equal sections.
When they stretched the rope into the triangle shown below, they always got a right angle. This was useful
when planning the pyramids, for example.
If we apply the Pythagorean Theorem to the Egyptian knots we can see that 32 + 42 = 52.
Which of the sets of three numbers listed would also let you form a right angle in this way?

Does the function satisfy the hypotheses of the mean value theorem on the given interval? f(x) = 4x^2 + 3x + 4, [−1, 1] no, f is continuous on [−1, 1] but not differentiable on (−1, 1). no, f is not continuous on [−1, 1]. yes, f is continuous on [−1, 1] and differentiable on (−1, 1) since polynomials are continuous and differentiable on . there is not enough information to verify if this function satisfies the mean value theorem. yes, it does not matter if f is continuous or differentiable; every function satisfies the mean value theorem.
