For answering this question we need to understand Pythagoras theorem. It states that when a triangle has a right angle (90º) the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the two othe...

NH3 has a bond angle of 107 degrees and is pyramidal this is because it has 3 bonded pairs and 1 lone pair. the lone pair repels more than the bonded pairs and this results in the bond angle being 107 deg...

Since the equation shows a 6x^2, we know that in the brackets we must have either: (2x+a)(3x+b) or (6x+a)(x+b) However we know the last two numbers must multiply to make -3, hence a and b must be +1 and -...

would start by asking what is 4 * 0.5 ? They might then work out that that is 2 which would lead them to have a cognitive conflict which can be very useful as they can understand that the logic is wrong.<...
