Question

The perimeter of the given triangle is

Answer 1

Answer:

~73.68

Step-by-step explanation:

In the right triangle with one angle = 45 deg

=> Isosceles right triangle

=> a = b = hypotenuse/sqrt(2) = (12sqrt(2))/sqrt(2) = 12

In other right triangle with 3 sides are a, c, and d, we have:

sin (30 deg) = a/d

=> d = a/sin(30 deg) = 12/(1/2) = 12 x 2 = 24

Othwise, cosine (30 deg) = c/d

=> c = d x cos(30 deg) = 24 x sqrt(3)/2 = 12sqrt(3)

=> The perimeter of the biggest triangle is calculated by:

P = 12sqrt(2) + b + c + d = 12sqrt(2) + 12 + 12sqrt(3) + 24 = ~73.68

Hope this helps!
