Answer:
52 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
If we drop a perpendicular line from point C to AD and call the point ( on AD) E we have a right triangle CED.
Now CE = 6 and as the whole figure is symmetrical about the dashed line,
ED = (26 - 10)/2
= 8.
So by Pythagoras:
CD^2 = 6^2 + 8^2 = 100
CD = 10.
So, as AB = CD,
the perimeter = 10 + 26 + 2(8)
= 52.
For get the solution of this task, we must make the system of equations.First it: "The quotient between the sum of two numbers and one of them is equal to 3" Let's take two values: a and b.(a+b)/b=3 --- it's will be first equation in our system.
and "The inverse of double the sum of them and equal to 1/6"1/2(a+b)=1/6 it's will be second equation in our system.
Attention at parenthesis.
System(a+b)/b=31/2(a+b)=1/6
by the first equation:(a+b)/b=3a+b=3ba=2b --- we will use this equation for second equation in system
1/2(2b+b)=1/61/3b)=1/63b=6b=2 and a=2b, that's mean a=1.The answer is pair (1;2)
