Given:
Point F,G,H are midpoints of the sides of the triangle CDE.
To find:
The perimeter of the triangle CDE.
Solution:
According to the triangle mid-segment theorem, the length of the mid-segment of a triangle is always half of the base of the triangle.
FG is mid-segment and DE is base. So, by using triangle mid-segment theorem, we get
GH is mid-segment and CE is base. So, by using triangle mid-segment theorem, we get
Now, the perimeter of the triangle CDE is:
Therefore, the perimeter of the triangle CDE is 56 units.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You can observe in the figure that JK is a tangent and KH is a secant and both intersect at the point K. Then, according to the Intersecting secant-tangent Theorem:
You know that:
Then KE is:
Now you can substitute the value of KE and the value of KH into and solve for JK. Then the result is:
