Triangles PQR and STU are similar. The length of PQ = 36 cm, RP = 48 cm and QR = 24 cm. THe length of the longest side of triangle STU is 92 cm. What is the perimeter of
triangle STU?

207 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Because ΔPQR ≅ΔSTU and the longest side in the ΔPQR is RP then the longest side in ΔSTU must be SU = 92 cm

Perimeter of triangle PQR is

P(ΔPQR) = 36+48+24 = 108 cm

Because the triangles are are similar their sides are in proportion.

But how much bigger did the second triangle get?...is (92/48) times bigger

P(ΔSTU) = 180*(92/48) = 207 cm

...you can also use proportions to find each side and then find the perimeter

TU = 24*92 /48 = 46

TS = 36*92/48 = 69

SU = 92

P(ΔSTU) = 92+69+46 =207 cm

*the triangles are not drawn to scale

in mathematics, a constraint is a condition of an optimization problem that the solution must satisfy. there are several types of constraints—primarily equality constraints, inequality constraints, and integer constraints. the set of candidate solutions that satisfy all constraints is called the feasible set.

hoped i'm right lol
