Answer: h = 11.26cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Equilateral triangle has equal sides, let the side be xcm , then the perimeter is 3x

Therefore:

3x = 39

x = 39/3

x = 13cm

To find the altitude , we will apply Pythagoras theorem , that is

13^{2}=h^{2}+6.5^{2}

Therefore:

h^{2}=13^{2}-6.5^{2}

h^{2}=169-42.25

h^{2}=126.75

take the square root of both sides

h = 11.26cm

Answer:

X= 5 ( 2 + Y )❤️

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. X = 5y + 10
  • X= 5( Y + 2 )

  1. 2x-10y= 20
  • 2( X - 5y ) = 20
  • (x-5y ) = 20/2
  • X - 5y = 10
  • X= 10 + 5y
  • X = 5 ( 2 + Y )
