Solve this for me (geometry)

Given:

The figure of triangle GHI and a circle M inscribed in the triangle.

To find:

The perimeter of the triangle.

Solution:

We know that the lengths of the tangent on a circle from same exterior point are always equal.

JH=HK             (Tangent from point H)

6x-11=2x+9

6x-2x=11+9

4x=20

Divide both sides by 4.

x=\dfrac{20}{4}

x=5

Now,

JH=6x-11

JH=6(5)-11

JH=30-11

JH=19

In the same way,

GJ=GL             (Tangent from point H)

IK=IL             (Tangent from point H)

From the figure, it is clear that,

IL=GI-GL

IL=40-GJ

IL=40-23

IL=17

The perimeter of the triangle GHI is:

Perimeter=GH+HI+GI

Perimeter=(GJ+HJ)+(HK+IK)+(GL+IL)

Perimeter=(23+19)+(19+17)+(23+17)

Perimeter=118

Therefore, the perimeter of the triangle GHI is 118 units.

A square base of a pyramid has the dimensions 5 yards by 5 yards. The height of one of the triangular faces is 12 yards. How can
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

145 yards squared

Step-by-step explanation:

So the area of the base is area of a square with side length of 5 yards 5*5=25

The area of one triangular face base times height divided by two and then simply multiplied by 4 because there are 4 triangular faces.

(\frac{5*12}{2} )*4 = 120

So the total surface area is 25+120=145 yards squared
