given a right-angled triangle with perimeter 18. The sum of the squares of the three side lengths is 128. What is the area of the triangle ? ​

Answers

Answer:

9units²

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle has 3 sides. Let the length of the three sides be a, b, c.

If the perimeter of the triangle is 18, then;

P = a+b+c

a+b+c = 18... 1

If the sum of the squares of the three side lengths is 128, this means;

a²+b²+c² = 128... 2

Since the triangle is also right angled, according to Pythagoras theorem;

c² = a²+b²... 3 (taking c as the hypotenuse)

Substitute equation 3 into 2;

(a²+b²)+c² = 128

c²+c² = 128

2c² = 128

c² = 128/2

c² = 64

c = √64

c = 8

Substituting c = 8 into 1

a+b+c = 18

a+b+8=18

a+b = 10 ...... 3

Substituting c = 8 into 2

a²+b²+c² = 128

a²+b²+8² = 128

a²+b²+64 = 128

a²+b²= 64..... 4

Solve equation 3 and 4 simultaneously;

a+b = 10

a²+b²= 64

From 4; a = 10-b

Substitute a = 10-b into 4;

(10-b)²+b² = 64

100-20b+b²+b² = 64

2b²-20b+100-64 = 0

2b²-20b+36 = 0

Divide through by 2:

b²-10b+18 = 0

b = 10±√10²-4(18)/2

b = 10±√100-72/2

b =( 10±√28)/2

b =(10±√4×7)/2

b = (10±2√7)/2

b = 5±√7

Hence b = 5+√7

If a+ b = 10

a+(5+√7 ) = 10

a = 10-(5+√7)

a = 10-5-√7

a = 5-√7

Area of the triangle A = 1/2 ab

A = 1/2 × (5+√7) × (5-√7)

A = 1/2 × (25-5√7+5√7-7)

A = 1/2 × (25-7)

A = 1/2 × 18

A = 9

Hence the are of the triangle is 9units²

a rectangular piece of metal is 15in longer then it is wide. squares with sides 3in long are cut from the four corners and the flaps are folded upward to form an open box. if the volume of the box is 1092in cubed what were the original dimensions of the piece of metal?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x equal the width of the box and x + 15 equal the length of the box.  Subtract 6 (the amount cut out) from both of the these to get the following terms: (x+9) and (x-6).  These are the length and width of the box respectively.  We also know that the height of the box is 3.  Plugging these into the formula for the volume of a box gives you:

3(x+9)(x-6)=1092

Expanding this out gives:

3x^2+9x-162=1092

Subtract 1092 from both sides to make the quadratic equation equal zero.  Plug the a, b and c coefficients into the quadratic formula (or factor) to find x.

3x^2 +9x-1254 = 0

a = 3       b = 9        c = -1254

I hope this helps :)

Given: KM bisects JKL
Prove: m MKL= 1/2m JKL

Answers

Start with out given statement:

Line KM bisects <JKL and the reason for that is because it's given.

For statement 2, we know that m<JKM = m<MKL

because of the definition of an angle bisector.

For statement 3, we can use the angle addition

postulate to get m<JKM + m<MKL = m<JKL.

For statement 4, we use substitution from

the info in statement 2 to get m<MKL + m<MKL = m<JKL.

For statement 5, we simplify to get 2(m < KML) = m<JKL.

For statement 5, we use the division property of equality.

All the reasons are underlined.
