The 18th term of Arithmetic progression is 99 and 29th term is 165. Find the first term and common difference

The first term is -3 and the common difference is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the nth term of an arithmetic progression AP is given as

Tn = a + (n - 1)d

where

Tn is the nth term

a is the first term and

d is the common difference while n is the number of terms

Given that the 18th term of Arithmetic progression is 99 and 29th term is 165 then

substituting the given values into the formula

a + 17d = 99

a + 28d = 165

solve both equations simultaneously

11d = 165 - 99

11d = 66

d = 66/11

= 6

recall that a + 17d = 99

a + 17(6) = 99

a + 102 = 99

a = 99 - 102

= -3

hence the first term is -3 and the common difference is 6

60

step-by-step explanation:

every triangle measures a total of 120 degrees. you have to find angle c. we know that isosceles triangles angles are equal. 60 degrees plus 60 degrees gives you 120.
