Answer: A. Use Pythagorean Theorem to prove that KL is equal to c.
=========================================================
Explanation:
If we could show that KL = c, then we can tie together the following pairs of segments
- EG = KM = a
- GF = ML = b
- EF = KL = c
Then we'd use the SSS congruence theorem to prove the triangles are congruent. The last step is to use CPCTC to conclude that angle EGF is a 90 degree angle.
Keep in mind that we need to know the actual numeric values of 'a' and 'b' to be able to determine the value for c. So without the numbers, the Pythagorean theorem isn't really useful; however, I can see where your teacher is going with this line of logic. Your teacher is effectively just laying out a basic outline more or less.
----------
Notes:
- SSS = side side side
- CPCTC = corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent
5x = length
4x = width
324 = perimeter
formula: P = 2(length) + 2(width)
324 = 2(5x) + 2(4x)
324 = 10x + 8x
324 = 18x
18 = x
Substitute the value of x = 18
Length = 5x = 5(18) = 90meters
Width = 4x = 4(18) = 72meters
Vas happening?
You break it down
3 ^5 is 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 = 729
4 ^ 5 is 4 x 4 x 4 x 4 x 4 = 1024
729 times 1024 = 746,496
12 ^ 10 is 12 x 12 x 12 x 12 x 12 x 12 x 12 x 12 x 12 x 12 = 6.19174e10
So the answer is incorrect
I Think The answer is c I hope it helps My friend Message Me if I’m wrong and I’ll change My answer and fix it for you
By changing their exponent to negative.
