Answers:
Perimeter = 58.5 centimeters
Area = 163.15 square centimeters
===============================================
Explanations:
To get the perimeter, you add up the three exterior (aka outer) sides. So you add up everything but the length measuring 13 cm, as this segment is not on the outside of the triangle. Imagine this is a parking lot and you want to put fencing around the outer sides. You won't build any fencing to run through the middle of the lot (assuming you don't want to subdivide)
So we add up 15.4, 18 and 25.1 to get 15.4+18+25.1 = 58.5 centimeters. The units stay at centimeters. We don't go to "square centimeters" like we do with the area below.
------------
To get the area of the largest triangle, we multiply the base and height, then divide by 2. The base is always perpendicular to the height
base = 25.1
height = 13
area = base*height/2 = 25.1*13/2 = 163.15 square cm
You write "square" before the "cm" to indicate the proper units for the area. Think of a 1 cm by 1 cm rectangle which has area of 1*1 = 1 square cm. This idea applies to triangles as well because we can subdivide the triangle into smaller squares, or you can move one piece of a triangle to another side to reshape the figure into a rectangle.
Explanation:
When the inequality symbol is replaced by an equal sign, the resulting linear equation is the boundary of the solution space of the inequality. Whether that boundary is included in the solution region or not depends on the inequality symbol.
The boundary line is included if the symbol includes the "or equal to" condition (≤ or ≥). An included boundary line is graphed as a solid line.
When the inequality symbol does not include the "or equal to" condition (< or >), the boundary line is not included in the solution space, and it is graphed as a dashed line.
Once the boundary line is graphed, the half-plane that makes up the solution space is shaded. The shaded half-plane will be to the right or above the boundary line if the inequality can be structured to be of one of these forms:
- x > ... or x ≥ ... ⇒ shading is to the right of the boundary
- y > ... or y ≥ ... ⇒ shading is above the boundary
Otherwise, the shaded solution space will be below or to the left of the boundary line.
_____
Just as a system of linear equations may have no solution, so that may be the case for inequalities. If the boundary lines are parallel and the solution spaces do not overlap, then there is no solution.
_____
The attached graph shows an example of graphed inequalities. The solutions for this system are in the doubly-shaded area to the left of the point where the lines intersect. We have purposely shown both kinds of inequalities (one "or equal to" and one not) with shading both above and below the boundary lines.
