1) Tanya is buying edging for a triangular flower garden she plans to build in her backyard. If the lengths of the three pieces of edging that she purchases are 13 feet, 10 feet, and 7 feet, will the flower garden be in the shape of a right triangle ?

• In a right triangle, the two sides adjacent to the

right angle are known as the , or

and .

• The side opposite from the right angle

is called the , or .

• The hypotenuse is always the side of a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Flower Garden is not in the shape of a right Δ

Step-by-step explanation:

~ To prove that this garden is in the shape of a right triangle, it can be done so through contradiction ~

Pythagorean Theorem is applied to a right triangle, so we can say that the two legs are 10 and 7 feet, the hypotenuse being 13, knowing it is the longest side;

a^2 + b^2 = c^2,

10^2 + 7^2 = 13^2,

100 + 49 = 169,

149 ≠ 169,

So the Flower Garden will not be in the shape of a right Δ

area = length x width

length = 2 x width

32 = 2 x width x width

32 = 2 x width^2

36 = width ^2  

width = 6

length = 12

area is 32

perimeter = 2 x 12 + 2 x 6 = 24 + 12 = 36

step-by-step explanation:

angle addition postulate

2x=56
