Answer:

  • x = 6√2
  • y = 6√6

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles are all similar, so corresponding sides are proportional.

__

<h3>x</h3>

  long side/short side = x/6 = 12/x

  x² = 72 . . . . . . . multiply by 6x

  x = 6√2 . . . . . . take the square root

__

<h3>y</h3>

  hypotenuse/long side = y/12 = (12+6)/y

  y² = 216 . . . . . multiply by 12y

  y = 6√6 . . . . . take the square root

The perimeter of a kite is 52 meters. If one side measures 19 meters find the measure of the opposite side.
Setler [38]

For any kite, we have two pairs of congruent adjacent sides. In general, the kite would have sides of x, x, y , y. In this case, x = 19 is known while y is unknown.

The four sides add up to 52, so

x+x+y+y = perimeter

19+19+y+y = 52

38+2y = 52

2y+38-38 = 52-38 .... subtract 38 from both sides

2y = 14

2y/2 = 14/2 ... divide both sides by 2

y = 7

Therefore the opposite side of the 19 meter side is 7 meters

<h3>Answer: B) 7 meters</h3>
