a) write an expression in simplest form for the perimeter of each triangle.
b)write another expression in simplest form that shows the difference between the perimeter of the larger triangle and the perimeter of the smaller triangle.
Huh??
Which triangles?
how do you post a pic
We can't post pictures here.
Sarah what grade r u in
she is in 8th grade i m guessin
@Miss_queen
Did anyone find the answer to c? find the perimeter for each triangle when x=3
I need to write the simplified expression for a rectangle's perimeter that is wide x-5 and the high is -5x.
7th grade because I have the same question
To find the expression for the perimeter of each triangle, we need to know the lengths of their sides. Let's assume that the lengths of the sides of the smaller triangle are represented by variables a, b, and c, while the lengths of the sides of the larger triangle are represented by variables x, y, and z.
a) Expression for the perimeter of the smaller triangle:
The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides. So, for the smaller triangle, the expression for the perimeter would be:
Perimeter_smaller_triangle = a + b + c
b) Expression for the difference between the perimeters:
To find the difference between the perimeters of the larger and smaller triangles, we subtract the perimeter of the smaller triangle from the perimeter of the larger triangle. Therefore, the expression for the difference in perimeters is:
Perimeter_difference = (x + y + z) - (a + b + c)
Please note that we need specific values or relationships between the sides of the triangles to simplify these expressions further.
