Do 5cm 5cm 15 cm form a triangle?

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

No, 5cm, 5cm, and 15cm cannot create a triangle because the side lengths do not follow the formula a + b > c. Since 5 + 5 = 10, and 10 is not greater than 15, these side lengths won't be able to form a triangle.

Hope this helps!!

8) The height of a building h varies directly as the length and inversely as the width, if h = 25m when l = 10m and w = 5m, find

shtirl [24]

Let h,l, and w represent the height, length, and width of the building respectively

Then

$\begin{gathered} h\text{ = }\frac{kl}{w} \\ \text{where k is the constant of proportionality} \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow k=\frac{hw}{l} \\ \Rightarrow k=\frac{25\times5}{10}=12.5 \end{gathered}$ $\Rightarrow h=\frac{12.5l}{w}$

The new value of h = 50m, but l remains the same.

That is l = 10m

Therefore

$\begin{gathered} \frac{50}{1}=\frac{12.5\times10}{w} \\ \Rightarrow\frac{50}{1}=\frac{125}{w} \\ \text{Cross multiplying, we have} \\ 50w\text{ = 125} \\ \Rightarrow\text{ w=}\frac{125}{50}=2.5 \end{gathered}$

Hence, the width is 2.5m
