Answer:
q = 2√14
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine the value of q, apply the leg rule/geometric mean theorem, which is:
Hypotenuse/leg = leg/part
Hypotenuse = 10 + 4 = 14
Leg = q
Part = 4
Plug in the values into the equation:
14/q = q/4
Cross multiply
q*q = 14*4
q² = 56
q = √56
q = √(4*14)
q = 2√14

Answer:
the shortest side is 855 miles long.
Step-by-step explanation:
a + b + c = 3078 miles
a = b - 71
c = b + 371
=>
(b-71) + b + (b+371) = 3078
3b + 300 = 3078
3b = 2778
b = 926 miles
a = 926 - 71 = 855 miles
c = 926 + 371 = 1297 miles
