Answer:
(0 , 0) , (18 , 0) , (18 , -18) , (0 , -18) ⇒ the second answer
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ The vertices of the rectangles are:
(0 , 0) , (0 , 6) , (6 , 6) , (6 , 0)
∵ 3 × × R
∴ That is mean The rectangle rotate 270° around the origin
(270° anti-clockwise or 90° clockwise)
and enlargement by scale factor 3
The right triangle is assumed to be inscribed in the rectangle, such that
hypotenuse is the diagonal of the rectangle.
Reasons:
Let <em>x</em> and<em> </em><em>y</em> represent the length of the sides of the rectangle
Whereby the base and height of the right triangle are the same as the
length and width of the rectangle, we have;
Perimeter of the rectangle = 2·x + 2·y = 68
Therefore;
x + y = 34
The base of the right triangle = x
The height of the right triangle = y
By Pythagoras's theorem, the length of the hypotenuse side = √(x² + y²)
Therefore; Perimeter of the right triangle = x + y + √(x² + y²) = 60
Which gives;
∴√(x² + y²) = 60 - (x + y) = 60 - 34 = 26
The length of the hypotenuse side, √(x² + y²) = <u>26 cm</u>
