Answer:
y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
The given line is a vertical line, so a perpendicular line will be a horizontal line. It will have an equation of the form ...
y = constant
In order for the line to go through the given point, the constant in the equation must be the same as the y-coordinate of the point: -2.
Your perpendicular line is ...
y = -2
Let's assume
shorter side as x
so, first side =2x
third side =x+19
now, we can find perimeter of triangle
perimeter of any triangle is
first side + shortest side + third side
so, we get
we are given perimeter=187
so, we can set it to 187
and then solve for x
so,
shortest length is x=42 feet
First side =2x=2*42=84feet
third side =x+19=42+19=61 feet
so, dimensions are
first side is 42 feet
second side is 84 feet
third side is 61 feet................Answer
Step-by-step explanation:
hope this helps you
