Given that the sides of the acute triangle are as follows:
21 cm
x cm
2x cm
Stated that 21 cm is one of the shorter sides of the triangle2x is greater than x, so it follows that 2x MUST be the longest side
For acute triangles, the longest side must be less than the sum of the 2 shorter sides
Therefore, 2x < x + 21cm
2x – x < 21cm
x < 21cm
If x < 21cm, then 2x < 42cm
Therefore, the longest possible length for the longest side is 42cm
You can divide it and get 2.2
Answer:
NQ = 26 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
A line bisector divides a line into two equal segments.
Given that line l is the bisector of segment NQ, it then means it divides NQ into two equal segments, namely, segment NP and segment PQ.
Thus, NP = ½ of segment NQ
Therefore, if NP = 13 cm,
13 = ½*NQ
multiply both sides by 2
2*13 = NQ
26 = NQ
NQ = 26 cm
