Question

In triangle XY Z, the measure of ∠XZY is 90◦. Also, Y Z = x cm, XZ = y cm, and hypotenuse XY has length z cm. Further, the perimeter of triangle XY Z is P cm and the area of triangle XY Z
is A cm^2. 

Solve the following subparts:

(a) If z = 50 and A = 336, what is the value of P?
(b) Determine all possible integer values of x, y and z for which A = 3P.
(c) Suppose that x, y and z are integers, that P = 510, and that A = kP for some
prime number k. Determine all possible values of k.
