segment yw is perpendicular to segment xz. the perimeter of triangle xyz is 71 meters. what is the length of segment wz
To find the length of segment WZ, we need to gather more information. A triangle having XY, YW, and XZ as its sides is not sufficient. We either need to know the lengths of XY, YW, and XZ or have additional information about the triangle.
If we have the lengths of XY, YW, and XZ, we can use the Pythagorean theorem along with the fact that YW is perpendicular to XZ to determine the length of WZ. However, since the lengths of these segments are not given, we cannot directly calculate the length of WZ.
To find the length of segment WZ, we need more information such as angles or additional side lengths.
