Answer

Statement p is true.

Statement q is true.

Statement r is false.

Step-by-step explanation

We are asked to evaluate the true elements of statement p, q and r. Taking each of them one at a time,

p: 12 + (–4) = 8

12 - 4 is indeed equal to 8. Hence, statement p is true.

q: A right angle measures 90 degrees.

A right angle is an angle that measures 90 degrees. Hence, statement q is true too.

r: A triangle has four sides.

A triangle has three sides. Hence, statement r is not true, that is, it is false.

Hope this Helps!!!
