We are given the statement that the strength, S, of a beam of width w andheight h is proportional to wh2. hence using k as the proportionality constant, the equation is  S = k wh2. the exact width and height can be determined by applying optimization to the problem. optimization is taking the first derivative of an equation and equating then to zero

Find the perimeter of triangle ABC.
Harlamova29_29 [7]
By definition, the perimeter of the triangle is the sum of its sides.
 We must then use the formula of distance between points:
 d =  \sqrt{(x2-x1) ^ 2 + (y2-y1) ^ 2}
 We now look for the longitus for each of the sides:
 
 For L1:
 L1 = \sqrt{(6-2)^2 + (6-2)^2}
 L1 =  \sqrt{32} 

 L1 = 4\sqrt{2}

 For L2:
 L2 = \sqrt{(7-2)^2 + (-3-2)^2}
 L2 = \sqrt{50}
 L2 = 5\sqrt{2}

 For L3:
 L3 = \sqrt{(7-6)^2 + (-3-6)^2}
 L3 = \sqrt{82}
 
 Then, the perimeter is given by:
 P = L1 + L2 + L3
 Substituting values we have:
 P = 4\sqrt{2} + 5\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{82} 

P = 9\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{82}

 Answer:
 
the perimeter of triangle ABC is:
 
none of the above.
