The perimeter of triangle ABC is 24 units

Step-by-step explanation:

If a segment joining the mid points of two sides of a triangle, then

this segment is:

  • Parallel to the third side
  • Its length is half the length of the third side

In The triangle XYZ

∵ A is the mid point of XY

∵ B is the mid point of YZ

∴ AB = \frac{1}{2} XZ

∵ XZ = 18 units

- Substitute the value of XZ in AB

∴ AB = \frac{1}{2} × 18 = 9 units

∵ B is the mid point of YZ

∵ C is the mid point of XZ

∴ BC = \frac{1}{2} XY

∵ AY = 7 units

∵ AY = \frac{1}{2} XY

∴ XY = 2 × AY

∴ XY = 2 × 7

∴ XY = 14 units

∴ BC = \frac{1}{2} × 14 = 7 units

∵ A is the mid point of XY

∵ C is the mid point of XZ

∴ AC = \frac{1}{2} YZ

∵ BZ = 8 units

∵ BZ = \frac{1}{2} YZ

∴ YZ = 2 × BZ

∴ YZ = 2 × 8

∴ YZ = 16 units

∴ AC = \frac{1}{2} × 16 = 8 units

∵ The perimeter of a triangle = the sum of the lengths of its sides

∴ Perimeter Δ ABC = AB + BC + AC

∴ Perimeter Δ ABC = 9 + 7 + 8 = 24 units

The perimeter of triangle ABC is 24 units

Consider two unique parallel lines. What aspects of these two lines are the same? What aspects of these two lines would have to
scoray [572]
Parallel lines must have the same slope.  However for them to be UNIQUE lines, ie different lines, they must have a different y-intercept.

So if we say generally that a line is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept then these two unique parallel lines would be:

y1=mx+h and y2=mx+k

Where m is the same for both and each have unique constants h and k where they cross the y-axis
