If the perimeter of Triangle XYZ is 56 cm, what is the perimeter of Triangle ABC?

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

28 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle ABC is obtained by joining the mid points of the sides of triangle XYZ.

So, perimeter of triangle ABC will be equal to half of the perimeter of triangle XYZ.

$P(\triangle ABC) = \frac{1}{2} \times P(\triangle XYZ)$

$P(\triangle ABC) = \frac{1}{2} \times 56$

$P(\triangle ABC) = 28\: cm$

For the following right triangle, find the side length x. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

$\sqrt{113}$ = x

Step-by-step explanation:

In right triangles the sum of square length of two legs is equal to square length of hypotenuse:

7^2 + 8^2 = x^2

49 + 64 = x^2 add like terms

113 = x^2 find the root for both sides

$\sqrt{113}$ = x
