\huge\mathfrak{\underline{Answer:}}

❒ The length of longest side of first Trianlge :

‎ㅤ‎ㅤ‎ㅤ‎ㅤ‎ㅤ\large\bf{32\:cm}

__________________________________________

\large\bf{\underline{given:}}

  • Two similar triangles
  • Perimeter of first Trianlge is 74 cm
  • Side length of second triangle are 4.5cm , 6cm and 8cm

\setlength{\unitlength}{1 cm}\begin{picture}(0,0)\thicklines\qbezier(1, 0)(1,0)(3,3)\qbezier(5,0)(5,0)(3,3)\qbezier(5,0)(1,0)(1,0)\put(2.85,3.2){$\bf A$}\put(0.5,-0.3){$\bf C$}\put(5.2,-0.3){$\bf B$}\end{picture}

\setlength{\unitlength}{0.75 cm}\begin{picture}(0,1)\thicklines\qbezier(1, 0)(1,0)(3,3)\qbezier(5,0)(5,0)(3,3)\qbezier(5,0)(1,0)(1,0)\put(2.85,3.2){$\bf P$}\put(0.5,-0.3){$\bf R$}\put(5.2,-0.3){$\bf Q$}\end{picture}

\large\bf{\underline{To \:find :}}

  • The length of longest side of first Trianlge

__________________________________________

\large\bf{\underline{Perimeter\:of\: second\: triangle:}}

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎\large\bf{=sum\:of\:all\:sides}

‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎\large\bf{=4.5+6+8}

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎\large\bf{=18.5}

❒ The ratio between the perimeter of two triangles :

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎\large\bf{=\frac{perimeter\:of\:1st\: triangle}{perimeter\:of\:2nd\: triangle}}

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎\large\bf{=\frac{74}{18.5}}

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎\large\bf{=4:1}

❒ The two triangles are similar , therefore the ratio of their sides will also be similar , i.e 4:1

➽ Let the sides of first Trianlge be x , y and z

\large\bf{\underline{Therefore:}}

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎\large\bf{⟹\frac{x}{4.5}=\frac{4}{1}}

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎\large\bf{⟹\frac{y}{6}=\frac{4}{1}}

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎\large\bf{⟹\frac{z}{8}=\frac{4}{1}}

\large\bf{\underline{Hence:}}

❒ Length of first side :

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎\large\bf{⟹\frac{x}{4.5}=\frac{4}{1}}

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎\large\bf{⟹x=4\times 4.5}

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎\large\bf{⟹x=18}

❒ Length of second side :

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎\large\bf{⟹\frac{y}{6}=\frac{4}{1}}

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎\large\bf{⟹y=4\times 6}

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎\large\bf{⟹y=24}

❒ Length of third side :

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎\large\bf{⟹\frac{z}{8}=\frac{4}{1}}

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎\large\bf{⟹z=4\times 8}

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎\large\bf{⟹z=32}

What is the measure of each angle?
Elza [17]

Answer:

The measure of the angles are 46, 89, and 41 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we need to add all 3 angles together and set equal to 180. Then we can find x.

x + 2x - 3 + x - 5 = 180

4x - 8 = 180

4x = 188

x = 46

Now we can find the value of each angle using the value of x.

Angle 1:

x = 46

Angle 2:

2x - 3

2(46) - 3

92 - 3

89

Angle 3:

x - 5

46 - 5

41
