If this first answers correct what is the answer to the second question? Are they even connected?

see below (I hope this helps!)

Step-by-step explanation:

9) We know that the perimeters of the square and triangle are equal so to find x, we can write:

4(x - 5) = x + x + 12

4x - 20 = 2x + 12

2x = 32

x = 16

10) To find the perimeter, we can substitute x = 16 into 4(x - 5) which would be 4(16 - 5) = 4 * 11 = 44.

step-by-step explanation:

use pothagarean therom

a^2+b^2=c^2 so first ac

acm is a right triangle because c= 90°

and am (the hypotenuse or c) =16+9 =25

but there is not enough info we need another angle or side length
