A triangle has the following side lengths: x - 2, x, and 3x + 1. Another triangle has the following side lengths: 2x - 5, x + 4,

6x - 7. If the perimeters of the two triangles are equal, what is x?

we know that

Perimeter of a triangle is equal to

P=a+b+c

where

a,b and c are the length sides of the triangle

<u>Find the perimeter of the triangles</u>

<u>Triangle N 1</u>

P=(x-2)+(x)+(3x+1)-------> P=5x-1

<u>Triangle N 2</u>

P=(2x-5)+(x+4)+(6x-7)------> P=9x-8

equate the perimeters

5x-1=9x-8--------> 9x-5x=-1+8-------> 4x=7

x=7/4------> x=1.75

therefore

the answer is

x=1.75

A triangle has side lengths measuring 20 cm, 5 cm, and n cm. Which describes the possible values of n?
tekilochka [14]
Sum of two sides of the triangle should be more than 3d side.
n<20+5,
n<25

Third side should be more than difference of  two other sides.
n> 20-15
n>5

So, n should be
5<n<25.

What is the measure of KPN?<br> A. 35°<br> B. 50°<br> C. 60°<br> D.65°<br> E. 70°
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

Option (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

NL and KM are the two lines intersecting at a point P.

Therefore, ∠KPN ≅ LPM [Vertical angles]

In ΔPLM,

m∠LPM + m∠PML + m∠PLM = 180° [Property of a triangle]

m∠LPM + 70° + 60° = 180°

m∠LPM + 130° = 180°

m∠LPM = 180° - 130°

m∠LPM = 50°

Therefore, m∠KPN = 50° [vertical angles]

Option (B) will be the correct option.
