Answer:
Does not make a triangle
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean theorem is
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a+b > c
22+32 =54 This is less than 55 so this does not make a triangle
The scale factor from the first map to the second map can be determined by:
scale factor = (length of trail in first map) / (length of trail in second map)
8 cm / 6 cm = 1.33
The landmark on the first map is a triangle with side lengths of 3mm, 4mm, and 5mm.
3mm = 3 * 1.33 mm = 3.99mm
4mm = 4 * 1.33 mm = 5.32mm
5mm = 5 * 1.33 mm = 6.65mm
Answer:
JL = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that K is on line segment JL, therefore:
KL + JK = JL (according to segment addition postulate)
KL = 2x - 2
JK = 5x + 2
JL = 4x + 9
Thus:
Solve for x
Subtract 4x from both sides
Divide both sides by 3
Find the numerical length of JL
Plug in the value of x
