1. Construct the Isosceles triangle from given data below : Altitude = 55mm Perimeter = 135mm

  base: 22 37/54; sides: 56 17/108

Step-by-step explanation:

If we let x represent half the length of the base, and y represent the length of the side, then we have ...

  2x +2y = 135 . . . . . perimeter relation

  x^2 +55^2 = y^2 . . . . Pythagorean theorem relation

Solving for y and substituting into the second equation, we have ...

  y = 135/2 -x

  x^2 + 3025 = (67.5 -x)^2

  3025 = -135x +4556.25 . . . . . . expand, subtract x^2

  135x = 1531.25 . . . . . . . . . . add 135x -3025

  x = 1531.25/135 = 11 37/108

The length of the base is double this value, 22 37/54.

The length of each side is 67.5 -11 37/108 = 56 17/108.

Check

The perimeter is the base plus two side lengths:

  22 37/54 + 2(56 17/108) = (22 +112) +37/54 +17/54 = 134 +1 = 135.

hope this .

the equivalent expression are always the hardest ones but you look at the gcf also
