Determine whether the given measures can be the lengths of the sides of a triangle. write yes or no. explain. 9.2, 14.5, 17.1

Sergio039 [100]

If the triangle has a angle of 90°, you can solved this exercise by applying the Pythagorean Theorem, which is:

h²=a²+b²
h=√(a²+b²)

h: It is the hypotenuse (The opposite side of the right angle and the longest side of the triangle).

a and b: They are the legs (The sides that form the right angle).

The result of h=√(a²+b²), should be 17.1 (The longest side given in the problem). So, let's substitute the values of the legs into the Pythagorean equation:

h=√(a²+b²)
h=√((9.2)²+(14.5)²)
h=17.1

Therefore, the answer is:

Yes, the given measures can be the lengths of the sides of a triangle.

A person who is 6ft tall walks away from a streetlight. When the person is 15 feet away from the light, the tip of his shadow is

Citrus2011 [14]

We essentially have a ratio here:
$\frac{shadow}{actual}$

Since we know the ratio is going to stay constant at $\frac{5}{6}$ , we can use this to find the height of the lamp along with the information that the total distance from the lamp to the tip of his shadow is 20:
$\frac{5}{6}=\frac{20}{h}$
$5h=120$
$h=24$
