The lengths of the other two sides of the right triangle are 12 and 13

<h3>Pythagorean theorem </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the lengths of the other sides of the triangle

From the given information,

The other sides have lengths that are consecutive integers

Thus,

If the length of the other side is x

Then,

The hypotenuse will be x + 1

By the <em>Pythagorean theorem</em>, we can write that

(x+1)² = x² + 5²

(x+1)(x+1) = x² + 25

x² + x + x + 1 = x² + 25

x² - x² + x + x = 25 - 1

2x = 24

x = 24/2

x = 12

∴ The other leg of the right triangle is 12

Hypotenuse = x + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13

Hence, the lengths of the other two sides are 12 and 13

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer Perimeter = 33in

Step-by-step explanation:

AC = 20

BD = 20

AB = 13

O is the midpoint

OD = OC = 20/2 = 10

AB = DC = 13 in

P = DC + OD + OC = 13+10+10 = 33in

May someone please help with the way please
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

17.6 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the ratio of similar shapes = a : b, then

area of shapes = a ² : b²

Δ PTQ and Δ PRS are similar and so the ratio of corresponding sides are equal, that is

PT : PR = 6 : 9 = 2 : 3, thus

ratio of areas = 2² : 3² = 4 : 9

let the area of Δ PQT be x, then using proportion

\frac{4}{x} = \frac{9}{x+22} ( cross- multiply )

9x = 4(x + 22) ← distribute

9x = 4x + 88 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

5x = 88 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 17.6

Thus area of Δ PQT = 17.6 m²
