A medial triangle is made from the midlines of the larger triangle, and its

length is half the length of the third side of the triangle.

  • The perimeter of ΔABC is <u>20</u>

Reasons:

The medial triangle of triangle ΔABC is triangle ΔDEF

The medial triangle of  ΔDEF is ΔXYZ

The perimeter of ΔXYZ = 5

By the midpoint theorem, we have;

The lengths of the sides of ΔDEF = 0.5 × The lengths of the sides of ΔABC

∴ The perimeter of ΔDEF = 0.5 × The perimeter of ΔABC

Which gives;

The perimeter of ΔABC = 2 × The perimeter of ΔDEF

Similarly, between ΔXYZ and ΔDEF, we have;

The perimeter of ΔDEF = 2 × The perimeter of ΔXYZ

∴ The perimeter of ΔDEF = 2 × 5 = 10

Therefore;

The perimeter of ΔABC = 2 × 10 = 20

<u>The perimeter of ΔABC = 20</u>

Peter leaves his house and walks 15 meters south, then turns east and walks another 15 meters. How far is he from his house? Rou
Varvara68 [4.7K]
When Peter does this, he is creating two sides of a right-angle triangle. The distance from his house to that point will be the hypotenuse of the triangle thus, to work out the length of the hypotenuse, we have to use Pythagoras Theorem! So:

a² + b² = c²
15² + 15² = c²
225 + 225 = c²
450 = c²
15√2 = c
21.21320344 = c

So, this rounded to the nearest tenth would be:

21.2 meters !
