The property that is being described in the statement "The sum of the components of anything equals the whole thing" would be the Partition Postulate. It is simply the whole is equal to the sum of its parts. For instance we have a line where it contains points W, X, Y and Z, then WX + XY + YZ = WZ.
A(1, 1), B(7, 1), C(1, 9)
AB = 7 - 1 = 6
AC = 9 - 1 = 8
Use the Pythagorean theorem:
AB² + AC² = BC²
Substitute:
BC² = 6² + 8²
BC² = 36 + 64
BC² = 100 → BC = √100 → BC = 10
The perimeter of ΔABC:
P = 6 + 8 + 10 = 24

IF A MOD DOESN'T DELETE THIS
8 is the GCF, so that means it's 8(3+5) = 8(8) = 64
