Question

Right isosceles triangles are constructed on the sides of a 3−4−5 right triangle, as shown. A capital letter represents the area of each triangle. What is $\frac{X+Y}{Z}$

Answer 1

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

because the triangles are isosceles, that means that the area of Z is 5x5x1/2, which equals 12.5

the area of X is 4.5

the area of y is 8

(8+4.5)/(12.5) = 1
