Find the values of x, y, and z in the triangle to the right

Answer:

x = 36 , y = 64 , z = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Exterior angle equals the sum of opposite interior angle.

3x +  8 = x +  z

3x - x - z = -8

2x  -  z = -8   ------------ (I)

z + 3x - 8 = 180 {linear pair}

3x + z = 180 + 8

3x + z = 188 --------------(II)

Add (I) and (II) and z will be eliminated and we can find the value of 'x'

(I)            2x - z = -8

(II)          <u> 3x + z = 188</u>   {Now add}

               5x      = 180

x = 180/5

x = 36

Plugin x = 36 in equation (II)

     3*36 +z = 188

        108 + z = 188

                z = 188- 108

z = 80

x + y + z = 180 ----------------(III)  {angle sum property of triangle}

36 + 80 +y = 180

       116 + y = 180

               y = 180 - 116

y = 64

SOLVE THIS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT EQUATION
finlep [7]

Answer:

<em>Option B; EF = ( About ) 4.47 units, Perimeter of Δ EFG = ( About ) 12.94 units</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

If we were to consider the height of this triangle EFG, it would be 4 units of length, supposedly splitting base GF into two ≅ parts, each 2 units of length. First let us name the point drawn to base GF ⇒ point H, so that the height of Δ EFG ⇒ EH. Now as EH splits GF into two ≅ parts, by Converse to Coincidence Theorem, Δ EFG ⇒ Isosceles Δ;

EH and FH are legs of a right triangle EFH, so that Pythagorean Theorem can be applied to solve for the length of EF and EG, knowing that as Δ EFG ⇒ Isosceles Δ, EF ≅ EG;

( EH )^2 + ( FH )^2 = ( EF )^2,

( 4 )^2 + ( 2 )^2 = ( EF )^2 ⇒ take square of 4 & 2,

16 + 4 = ( EF )^2 ⇒ combine like terms,

( EF )^2 = 20 ⇒ take square root on either side to solve for EF,

EF = √ 20 =<em> ( About ) 4.47 units</em> = EG,

Perimeter of Δ EFG = EF + GF + EG = 4.47 + 4 + 4.47 = <em>( About ) 12.94 units,</em>

<em>Solution; Option B</em>
