Answer:
3 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of all sides of ∆ = perimeter
Given that it has a perimeter of 13 in, and the following sides: (x - 5) in, x/2 in, and 6 in, therefore:

Solve to find the value of x


Multiply both sides by 2


Subtract 2 from both sides


Divide both sides by 3


The shortest side = (x - 5) in
Plug in the value of x
= (8 - 5) in
= 3 in
C should be the correct answer
23, because it is a prime number and therefore cannot be simplified enough to take outside of the square root.
Answer:
31 / 12
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the perimeter, just add up all the sides of the parallelogram, so 5/8 + 5/8 + 2/3 + 2/3 = 31/12
