Answer:
A: Yes, I agree. Why? Because if you look at the shape, its a triangle right, and a triangle both sides are equal, while the bottom line is not. But because both sides are equal, and half of the triangle is MPN and the other side is QPN, they both are congruent (or equal to)
B: Like I said, both MPN and QPN are both equal, and if you remove the P, it would still be the same because the shape has not changed.
I hope I helped :)
Answer:
9, 32 and 36
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of all the sides. Since you know the perimeter and the expressions for each of the sides, you can set up an equation to solve for the variable and find the values of the other sides:
one side: '4 times the shortest side' = 4s
shortest side: 's'
third side: '23 more than the shortest side' = s + 23
perimeter = 77
Equation: 4s + s + (s + 23) = 77
Combine like terms: 6s + 23 = 77
Subtract 23 from both sides: 6s + 23 - 23 = 77 - 23 or 6s = 54
Divide by 6: 6s/6 = 54/6 or s = 9
one side: 4s = 4(9) = 36
shortest side: s = 9
third side: s + 23 = 9 + 23 = 32
yes yes i agree completely thats the snswet answer* 25 a b c d 46:77 77/55
