Question 1051473: hello I need help with my triangle and how to solve it.. The right-angled triangle in the diagram has sides of length 7x cm, 24x cm and 150cm. (a) Show that x2. = 36. [2]. (b) Calculate the perimeter of the triangle. Answer(b) cm [1]. These are the things I need help with please respond to me and thank you. Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! a) Using the Pythagorean Theorem
(7x)^2 + (24x)^2 = 150^2
49x^2 + 576x^2 = 22500
625x^2 = 22500
x^2 = 22500/625
x^2 = 36cm^2

b) x = 6cm
P = 7*6cm + 34*6cm + 150cm = 396cm
