To 1 decimal place
55.9%
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are given the hypotenuse which is 18 since it slanted, and leans on the house. And we are given one of the legs which is 15 since it is vertical. We can use the pythagorean theorem to solve for this problem.
where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse l.
Let plug it in
The answer that I got was side WX = 12 inches
It says that WY is congruent to XY which means that they are the same. That means that XY is also 3m-4. It also says that the perimeter of the triangle is 76 inches.
With this information I set up an equation:
3m-4 + 3m-4 +m = 76
(The number on the right side is the perimeter given to us in the problem and the numbers on the left side are the 3 side lengths).
I combined like terms on the left side and ended up with:
7m-8=76
I added 8 to both sides of the equation and got 7m=84.
Finally I divided both sides by 7 and got m=12
m is equivalent to side WX..
Hope this helps!
