Question

Perimeter of a triangle: Side=5 Length=12 (Picture below)

Answer 1

30

Explanation:

Use pythagorean Theorem to find the hypotenuse

a² + b² = c²

5² + 12² = c²

25 + 144 = c²

169 = c²

Take the square root of both sides

c = 13

--------------------------

Perimeter = 5 + 12 + 13

p = 30
