3. (a) Are triangles PQR and STU congruent?

Mathematics

yawa3891 [41]3 years ago

We already know that PQ and ST are congruent because they both equal 4 and QR and TU are congruent because they both equal 6. Also I'm not sure if it is marking the two angles congruent but it looks like that to me so if that is the case then both of the triangles are congruent by SAS, PQ=ST, WR=TU, angle PQR = angle STU.

Now that we need to set up a system of equations to find y. Since we already proved the triangles congruent SU must be = to PR because of CPCTC "corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent" So the equation would be:

3y-2=y+4 (move y variable to one side) subtract y from right, add 2 to right

2y=6 (divide)

y=3

Then plug 3 into where y is (and since we need PQR perimeter plug it into 3(3)-2) and PR should equal 7 so add up all the sides (4+6+7) and your perimeter is 17ft.

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

x² = 16² + 30² - 2(16)(30)cos 30°

x² = 256 + 900 - 960(0.866)

x² = 1156 - 831.36

x² = 324.64

x = 18.02

Approx. 18

Find the measure of the the sides of DEF then classify it by it sides. <br> D(8,-6) E(-1,-3) F(-2,5)
Mama L [17]

Answer:

Part a) The measure of the sides of triangle DEF are

d_D_E=\sqrt{90}\ units

d_E_F=\sqrt{65}\ units

d_D_F=\sqrt{221}\ units

Part b) Is a scalene triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}

we have the coordinates

D(8,-6) E(-1,-3) F(-2,5)

step 1

Find the length side DE

D(8,-6) E(-1,-3)

substitute in the formula

d=\sqrt{(-3+6)^{2}+(-1-8)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{(3)^{2}+(9)^{2}}

d_D_E=\sqrt{90}\ units

step 2

Find the length side EF

E(-1,-3) F(-2,5)

substitute in the formula

d=\sqrt{(5+3)^{2}+(-2+1)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{(8)^{2}+(-1)^{2}}

d_E_F=\sqrt{65}\ units

step 3

Find the length side DF

D(8,-6) F(-2,5)

substitute in the formula

d=\sqrt{(5+6)^{2}+(-2-8)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{(11)^{2}+(-10)^{2}}

d_D_F=\sqrt{221}\ units

step 4

Classify the triangle by the measure of its sides

we have

d_D_E=\sqrt{90}\ units

d_E_F=\sqrt{65}\ units

d_D_F=\sqrt{221}\ units

so

Is a scalene triangle, because is a triangle in which all three sides have different lengths.
