Given that the sides of the acute triangle are as follows:
21 cm
x cm
2x cm
Stated that 21 cm is one of the shorter sides of the triangle2x is greater than x, so it follows that 2x MUST be the longest side
For acute triangles, the longest side must be less than the sum of the 2 shorter sides
Therefore, 2x < x + 21cm
2x – x < 21cm
x < 21cm
If x < 21cm, then 2x < 42cm
Therefore, the longest possible length for the longest side is 42cm
Answer: JL = 25
Step-by-step explanation: Segment JM is the total measure of the line segment and it equals 45.
Suppose first segment JK measures d.
The total ratio is the sum of each part
d + 4d + 4d = 9d
The sum of each part corresponds to the total measure of the line segment. Then:
9d = 45
d = 5
Segment JL is
JL = d + 4d
JL = 5d
JL = 5.5
JL = 25
Segment JL measures 25 units.
