Answer:
The length of the longest side of the triangle is 13 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the value of x
we know that
The perimeter of triangle is equal to the sum of its three length sides
so
we have
substitute
solve for x
step 2
Find the length of the longest side of the triangle
Remember that in a right triangle, the longest side is the hypotenuse
so
(2x+3) is the longest side
substitute the value of x
The length of the diagonal will be given by:
cos θ=adjacent/hypotenuse
θ=35°
hypotenuse=h
adjacent=80 inches=6.66667 ft
thus;
cos 35=6.66667/h
h=6.66667/cos35
h=8.1385 ft
diagonal=8.1385 ft
we conclude that the table will through the door diagonally.
How come it’s a right triangle, I think you do a2+b2=C2. Therefore, you do 9.4 times 9.4 and then 15.1 times 15.1. So it will be 9.4 + b2=15.1. 88.36+ b2=228.01. Then you subtract that and it will be 139.65. Then you do square roots because you are trying to get rid of the second power. And the final answer is 11.81736011. How they told you to round it to the nearest tenth, I will be 11.8. I think this is the answer.
Take the three and divide it with the 12 which would get you 4 so put a open circle Above the 4 and make the line go to the left I think I hope this will help
I am 1000000% certain it is option C.
