The Pythagorean theorem works.

12^2+9^2=c^2
144+81=c^2
225=c^2
15=c

Therefore the perimeter is 12 + 9 + 15 = 36 in. (B)

Then you applied it incorrectly

for a right triangle with legs legnth a and b and hypotonuse c,
a^2+b^2=c^2
hypotonuse=longest side or side oposite right angle



so we see that
hypotnuse=c=unknown
legs are legnth a and b or12 and 9
plug in
a=12
b=9
c=c
a^2+b^2=c^2
12^2+9^2=c^2
144+81=c^2
125=c^2
sqrt both sides
15=c

the legnth of the hypotnuse=15

to find the perimiter, you add all sides up
a+b+c=
12+9+15=
36

answer is 36 inches

How can I write a story about the doubles plus 2 fact 5+7=12.??
aksik [14]
One <u>possible story</u> is:

I had 5 apples.  My sister gave me 7, and now I have 12.

Explanation:

We are writing a story for 5+7=12.  This means we need to start with 5 objects and somehow gain 7 more.  In our story, we start with 5 apples and we get 7 more.

The last part is that our total must be 12.  In our story, we end with 12 apples.
