➷ The perimeter for a rectangle is

(length x 2) + (width/height x 2)

Substitute in the values you have:

38 = (length x 2) + (14 x 2)

38 = length x 2 + 28

Subtract 28 from both sides:

10 = length x 2

Divide by 2:

length = 5

Height is 5

When 14 ×2=28

While perimeter =38

Therefore the sides =38-28=10

10÷2 is one side

Can the set of lengths be the side lengths of a right triangle?

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

B. No.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given 3 side lengths 7 ft, 12 ft, 17 ft. We are asked to determine, whether the given set of lengths can form a right triangle or not.

We will use Pythagoras theorem to solve our given problem, which states that the square of hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of squares of two legs of right triangle.

$17^2=12^2+7^2$

$289=144+49$

$289>193$

Since the sum of squares of both legs is less than square of hypotenuse, therefore, the given set of lengths can not be the side lengths of a right triangle.
