I am deeply confused by the Triangle Inequality Theorem, how come it doesn't work for 3-1-2? I mean when you add 3 and 1 you get 4 and 4 is greater than 2... so why doesn't it work? Am I missing something?

8

step-by-step explanation:

just put √(2) * √(32) into a calculator. that will make the answer be 8.

well the answer to that is xoxoxo

step-by-step explanation:

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.
