Answer to Problem 16PSB

The value of x is 7

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Measures of other sides are 15,17,6,25 and 26

Concept used:

Here, we are using Pythagoras theorem.

  (Hypotenuse)2=(perpendicular)2+(base)2

Calculation:

  Geometry For Enjoyment And Challenge, Chapter 9.6, Problem 16PSB , additional homework tip  1

Here, the formula is

  (Hypotenuse)2=(perpendicular)2+(base)2

Let the missing side be x

In ΔABF

  (x)2=(17)2(15)2

  x=289225

  x=64

  x=8

Now, In ΔBCF

  x2=(8)2+(6)2

  x=64+36

  x=100

  x=10

Now, In ΔFCD

  x2=(26)2(10)2

  x=676100

  x=576

  x=24

Now, In ΔFDE

  x2=(25)2(24)2

  x=625576

  x=49

  x=7

Conclusion: Hence, the value of x is 7

To determine

To find:The value of x and y

Answer to Problem 16PSB

The values of x and y are 20 and 20

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The measures of other sides are 12,3 and 5

Concept used:

Here, we are using Angle Angle similarity and Pythagoras theorem.

Calculation:

  Geometry For Enjoyment And Challenge, Chapter 9.6, Problem 16PSB , additional homework tip  2

Here, In ΔABE and ΔACD

  A=A (common)

  ABE=ACD (right angles)

So, ΔABEΔACD (by using Angle Angle similarity)

Hence, 1215=yy+5

  12y+60=15y

  y=20

Now, using Pythagoras theorem

  (x)2=(25)2(15)2

  x=625225

  x=400

  x=20

Conclusion: Hence, the values of x and y are 20 and 20
