How many different factors does 972 have?

How many different ways can 6 books be arranged on a shelf if one of the books, book X, has to be first?



The last time I tried a problem like this, I got a number way off. I'm also really bad at these kinds of problems!

Oh and please show your work... I want to see how you managed to solve these amazingly difficult problems

Let P be a point inside square ABCD such that PA = 1, PB = 2, and PC = 3. Find angle APB.


Ok so let me get things straight. I know that you guys did this problem before, but I read the post and wondered if there is an easier method of finding angle APB without the cosine method thing.

About trigonometry. I haven't learned it yet, so try avoiding it with me until I say I've learned it, or people will be looking at me like I need to get outside more often. And thanks, Geogebra, I'll need to see if I can have download it...

Let ABCD be a square of side length 1. Let P be a point on side CD such that angle DAP = 20 degrees. Let Q be a point on side BC such that angle BAQ = 25 degrees. Find the perimeter of triangle CPQ.

Point G is the midpoint of median XM of triangle XYZ. Point H is the midpoint of XY, and point T is the intersection of HM
and YG. Find the area of triangle MTG if [XYZ] =150.
