What is the value for y? Enter your answer in the box. y=

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

$y =112$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached triangle

Required

Find y

The attached triangle is isosceles; so:

$x - 5=34$

Also, we have:

$y + x - 5 + 34=180$ --- angles in a triangle

Substitute: $x - 5=34$

$y + 34 + 34=180$

Collect like terms

$y =- 34 - 34+180$

$y =112$

Prove that the triangle EDF is isosceles. Give reasons for your answer.

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

$\triangle EDF$ is isosceles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please have a look at the attached figure.

We are given the following things:

$\angle EDF = y$

$\text{External }\angle DFG = 90 +\dfrac{y}{2}$

Let us try to find out $\angle E$ and $\angle DFE$ . After that we will compare them.

Finding  $\angle DFE$ :

Side EG is a straight line so $\angle GFE = 180$

$\angle GFE$ is sum of internal $\angle DFE$ and external $\angle DFG$

$\angle GFE = 180 = \angle DFE + \angle DFG\\\Rightarrow 180 = \angle DFE + (90+\dfrac{y}{2})\\\Rightarrow \angle DFE = 180 - 90 - \dfrac{y}{2}\\\Rightarrow \angle DFE = 90 - \dfrac{y}{2} ....... (1)$

Finding  $\angle E$ :

Property of external angle: External angle in a triangle is equal to the sum of two opposite internal angles of a triangle.

i.e. external $\angle DFG$ = $\angle E + \angle EDF$

$\Rightarrow 90+\dfrac{y}{2} = \angle E + y\\\Rightarrow \angle E = 90+\dfrac{y}{2} -y\\\Rightarrow \angle E = 90-\dfrac{y}{2} ....... (2)$

Comparing equations (1) and (2):

It can be clearly seen that:

$\angle DFE = \angle E =90-\dfrac{y}{2}$

The two angles of $\triangle EDF$ are equal hence $\triangle EDF$ is isosceles.

What is the perimeter of a swimming pool that is 97 feet in length and 17 feet wide?

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

228 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 2(l+w)

We know the length is 97 and the width 17

P = 2(97+17)

= 2(114)

=228
