Let the shorter side be x.

"one side of the triangle is 11 more than the shorter side" is x + 11

"and the longer side is 25 more than the shorter side" is x + 25


x + x + 11 + x + 25 = 117


3x + 36 = 117


3x = 81


x = 27


x + 11 = 38


x + 25 = 52


Answer: The sides have lengths 27 in., 38 in., and 52 in.

Solve each equation. List any restrictions. Check your solutions. <br> 12/x+11=17
Thepotemich [5.8K]
12+11x=17x11x+12=17x
(both sides of the equation)
11x+12−17x=17x−17x
(Subtract 17x from both sides)
−6x+12=0−6x+12−12=0−12
(Subtract 12 from both sides)
−6x=−12−6x−6=−12−6
(Divide both sides by -6)
x=2

x=2
(Works in original equation)

If you have a square that has sides measuring 5 inches what is the measure of its diagonal​
Oxana [17]

Answer:

5√2 Inches

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition of a square, all it's sides are the same measurement (typically signified by the variable <em>s</em> on all sides).

In a triangle (as with a intersection from one corner to the other (diagonal), It would create a right triangle. Remember, the two leg sides are the same measurement (typically placed as 1). There is one triangle side measurement rule:

1 , 1 , √2

Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding units. the 5 inches is a side (not the hypotenuse), so it belongs in the 1:

1 x 5 = 5

1 x 5 = 5

√2 x 5 = 5√2

The measurement of it's diagonal (hypotenuse) is 5√2.
