The side lengths of a triangle are 10,26 and, №18011039, 05.03.2020 04:23

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider a right angled triangle with sides as 10, 26 & 24 units.

Here, we need to find the hypotenuse of the triangle.

The hyptenuse is the side which is opposite to the right angle (90°) & is also the longest side of the triangle.

Then, among the given values, we can clearly say that 26 > 10, 24.

Therefore, The side lengths of a triangle are 10,26 and, №18011039, 05.03.2020 04:23 is the hypotenuse  of the triangle with side lengths as 10, 26, 24 units.

Answer- Yes it is a right triangle.
You can use the Pythagorean Theorem.
( a^2 + b^ = c^2 ) and replace a with 10, b with 24, and c with 26 and the equation will be balanced on both sides.

(10^2 + 24^2 = 26^2)
(100 + 576 = 676 )

1. A.Use law of cosines. cosA=(b^2+c^2-a^2)/(2bc) because A is the included angle between b and c. Plug in A=50 degrees, b=13, c=6. cos50=(13^2+6^2-a^2)/(2*13*6), a^2=104.7,a=10.2 approximately, so choose A.

2. A.Use law of cosines again. cosC=(a^2+b^2-c^2)/(2ab). C=95 degrees, a=12, b=22. Plug in, cos95=(12^2+22^2-c^2)/(2*12*22), solve the equation, c^2=674, c=26 approximately. The use law of sines to solve for angle A (also works for B), a/sinA=c/sinC, 12/sinA=26/sin95, sinA=0.46, A=arcsin(0.46)=27.6. Choose A.

3. Answer is A. Area=1/2bc*sinA, since A is the included angle between b and c. Plug in b=30, c=14, A=50 degrees, area=1/2*14*30*sin50=160. 87, so the answer is A.

4. D. As long as the sum of any two sides of the triangle is bigger than the third, the triangle exists. 240+121>263, 240+263>121, 263+121>240, so it exists. To use Heron's formula, first find the semiperimeter, (240+263+121)/2=312. A=\sqrt(312*(312-240)*(312-263)*(312-121))=14499.7 approximately, so choose D.

5. 300. The included angle between the two paths is C=49.17+90=139.17 degrees. The lengths of the two paths are a=150, b=170. c is the distance we want. Use the law of cosines, cosC=(a^2+b^2-c^2)/(2ab). Plug in, c^2=89989, c=300 approximately.

The side lengths could be 10, 24 and 26 units.

We must first find the side lengths.  We use the distance formula to do this.

For RT:
d=\sqrt{(11--1)^2+(-1--1)^2}
\\=\sqrt{(11+1)^2+(-1+1)^2}
\\=\sqrt{12^2+0^2}=\sqrt{144}=12

For ST:
d=\sqrt{(11-11)^2+(4--1)^2}
\\=\sqrt{0^2+(4+1)^2}=\sqrt{5^2}=\sqrt{25}=5

For TR:
d=\sqrt{(11--1)^2+(4--1)^2}
\\=\sqrt{(11+1)^2+(4+1)^2}=\sqrt{12^2+5^2}=\sqrt{144+25}=\sqrt{169}=13

Our side lengths, from least to greatest, are 5, 12 and 13.

To be similar but not congruent, the side lengths must have the same ratio between corresponding sides but not be the same length.  10, 24 and 26 are all 2x the original side lengths, so this works.
