JL=84. If JK =5x+8 and KL= 4x+4 then x=?

1 answer:

7 0

If the whole line is JL, then JK+KL=JL
JK:5x+8
KL:4x+4
5x+8+4x+4=84
Get all like terms on one side
5x+8+4x+4=84
-8 -4
5x+4x= 72
9x=72
x=8
Plug it into the equation
5(8)+ 8= 48
4(8)+4= 36
———————
84
So x=8
JK=48
KL=36

<h3>The length of legs of isosceles right triangle is 8.5 cm</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given is a isosceles triangle

hypotenuse = 12 cm

In an isosceles right triangle, the legs have equal lengths

Let these sides be each "a" cm

By pythogoras theorem,

$(Hypotenuse)^2 = (leg)^2 + (leg)^2\\\\12^2 = a^2+a^2\\\\2a^2 = 144\\\\a^2 = 72\\\\Take\ square\ root\ on\ both\ sides\\\\a = \sqrt{72}\\\\a = 8.49 \approx 8.5$

Thus the length of leg of isosceles right triangle is 8.5 cm
