The perimeter of right isosceles ΔABC with midsegment DE is 16 + 8√2.

If right isosceles ΔABC has hypotenuse length h, then the two other sides are congruent.

side a = side b

Using Pythagorean theorem, c^2 = a^2 + b^2

h^2 = a^2 + b^2      a = b

h^2 = 2a^2

a = h/√2

If DE is a midsegment not parallel to the hypotenuse, then it is a segment that connects the midpoints of one side of a triangle and the hypotenuse. See photo for reference.

ΔABC and ΔADE are similar triangles.

a : b : h = a/2 : 4 : h/2

If a/2 = a/2, then b/2 = 4.

b/2 = 4

b = 8

If a = b, then a = 8.

If a = h/√2, then

8 = h/√2

h = 8√2

Solving for the perimeter,

P = a + b + h

P = 8 + 8 + 8√2

P = 16 + 8√2

P = 27.3137085

What is the value of x?<br><br> a. 71°<br> b. 142°<br> c. 152°<br> d. 76°
alexgriva [62]
The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.
An isosceles triangle has two congruent sides.
The angles opposite the congruent sides are congruent.
Just like the bottom left angle measures x, the bottom right angle also measures x.

x + x + 38 = 180

2x + 38 = 180

2x = 142

x = 71

Are the graphs of the lines in the pair parallel? Explain. y = 4x – 4 24x – 4y = 96
zaharov [31]
No, since the slopes are different

for 1 line
y = 4x - 4

slope = 4

for 2 line
4y = 24x - 96
slope = 24/4 = 6

Graph the solution of 2 ≥ 4 - v
Lerok [7]
For this case we have the following inequality:
 2 ≥ 4 - v
 The first thing we must do in this case is to clear the value of v.
 We have then:
 v ≥ 4 - 2
 v ≥ 2
 Therefore, the solution set is given by:
