Please help with all of question 4.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine like terms: Like terms have same variable with same power and to combine the like terms, add/subtract the co efficient of the variables.

Perimeter:

      Perimeter = sum of all sides

a) Perimeter of ΔABC = AB + BC + CA

                                    = x + 14 + x + 14 + x + 14

                                    = x + x + x + 14 + 14 + 14    {Combine like terms}

                                   = 3x + 42

b) EF = DI - GH

        = 2x + 3 - x

       = 2x - x + 3

       = x + 3

c) FG = HI - ED

         = 12 + 2x - (x + 5)

         = 12 + 2x - x - 5 {To open the brackets, (-1) is distributed to x and 5}

         = 12 - 5 + 2x - x

         = 7 + x

d) Perimeter of DEFGHI = DE +  EF + FG + GH + HI + ID

                                       =  x + 5 + x + 3 + 7 +x  + x + 12 +2x + 2x + 3

                                       = x +x + x + x + 2x + 2x + 5 + 3 + 7 + 3 + 12  

                                       = 8x + 30
