Given:

P ΔABC=22”

AB=8”

∠A= ∠B

Solution:

The formula for the perimeter of triangle is:

P = AB + AC + BC ------- eq. 1

Since ∠A= ∠B, we can say that the length of AC is equal to the length of BC.

AC=BC -------eq. 2

Integrate equation 2 to equation 1 by substituting AC for BC,

P = AB + AC + AC

Simplify the above equation and equate to AC,

P = AB + 2AC

AC= (P-AB)/2

Substitute the given data into the equation,

AC= (22”-8”)/2

AC= 7”

Therefore, the length of segment AC is 7 inches.


2.

Given:

AB=CD

arcAB=6X

arcCD=7x-22

Solution:

Since the chords are congruent, we can say that the corresponding minor arcs are also congruent.

arcAB = arcCD -------eq.1

Substitute the given to the above equation then find the value of x,

6x=7x-22

7x-6x=22

x=22

Substitute the value of the x to one of the arc equation,

arcAB=6x

arcAB=6(22)

arcAB=132֯

Therefore, arcAB= arcCD=132֯


3.

Given:

∠M=∠Y
∠N=∠Z
ZY=3

Solution:

If the two triangles have two angles and 1 same side (corresponding to each other) that are equal, then
they are said to be congruent.

If NM=ZY, then LM=XY and LN=XZ.

LM = 12

LM = XY = 12

Therefore, XY =12.
4.

Given:

Hypotenuse=25

Long Side=20

Angle Opposite to the Hypotenuse= 90֯

Short Side=?

Solution:

Since this is a right triangle, we use the Pythagorean theorem to find the 3 rd side.

The formula is:

a2+b2=c2---------eq.1

Where:

a=short side

b=long side

c=hypotenuse

Rearranging the formula to find the value of short side,

a2=c2- b2

a=√ c 2−b2
Substituting the given values,

a=√ (25)2−(20)2
a =15

Therefore, short side=15.

Since all the sides of the triangle are whole numbers, we can say that they are Pythagorean Triples.

1) Segment Addition Postulate

For any segment, the measure of the whole is equal to the sum of the measures of its non-
overlapping parts.

EF & FG are non-overlapping parts of the segment EG so the sum of their length is equal to
that of EG.

2) Transitive Property of Equality


Since EG=FH
And
EG=EF+FG, FH=FG+GH
Therefore, EF+FG=FG+GH
6.

Given:

∠I=58֯

∠K=62֯

Solution:

From Triangle Sum theorem, the sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180.

180 =∠I+∠J+∠K

Substitute given and find ∠J


180 = 58 +∠J +62
∠J =60֯
So the arrangement of angle from smallest to largest is
∠I < ∠J < ∠K
58 < 60 < 62
The length of the opposite sides will also have the same order from smallest to largest,
∠I opposite to JK
∠J opposite to IK
∠K opposite to IJ
Therefore, the order of the sides from smallest to largest is
JK < IK < IJ

Given:

Ratio of the sides of ABCD to the sides of EFGH = 2/3

PABCD=36

PEFGH=?

Solution:

The Ratio of Perimeter of Similar Polygons is equal to the Ratio of the length of their sides.

S ABCD P ABCD

Substituting the given data,

2 36
=

Therefore, PEFGH= 54
8.

Given:

∠BAO=20
mArcAD=30
Solution:
From the Inscribed Angle theorem, the angle θ inscribed in a circle is half of the
central angle 2θ that subtends the same arc on the circle
∠ABD = (1/2) mArcAD
∠ABD = (1/2)(30)
∠ABD = 15
From Triangle Sum theorem,
180 = ∠ABD + ∠BAO +∠AOB
180 = 15 + 20 +∠AOB
∠AOB = 145
From Vertical Angle Theorem, states that vertical angles, angles that are opposite each other
and formed by two intersecting straight lines, are congruent
∠AOB = ∠DOC
Therefore, ∠DOC=145

=
48 BC
Therefore, BC = 42.

Given:

Sides of triangle: 5, 7, 10

Solution:

From the Triangle Inequality Theorem, the sum of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the


measure of the third side to form a triangle.

Calculating for each side,

5<7+10

5<17

7<5+10

7<15

10<5+7

10<12

Since all sides are aligned with the theorem, then we can say that they form a triangle.

Given:

Hypotenuse=5

Shorter sides=x

Solution:
Since this is a right triangle which has 2 equal sides, we can say that this is a 45-45-90 triangle
A 45 45 90 triangle is a special type of isosceles right triangle where the two legs are congruent
to one another and the non-right angles are both equal to 45 degrees
From the property of this special triangle, we know that

Length of Hypotenuse= √ 2× Length of Leg


Using the above equation:

5=√ 2 (x)

x=

5 √2
x= ×
√ 2 √2
5 √2
Therefore, x=

Given:
AB=3y+4
AC=11y

From the Two Tangents Theorem:


If two tangent segments are drawn from the same external point, then the segments are equal.
So we can say that:
AB=AC
Substitute the given data and find y,
3y+4=11y
y=1/2
Substitute the value of y to the equation of AB,
AB=3y+4
AB=3(1/2)+4
Therefore, AB=5.5

Since it is an Angle Formed Outside of Circle by Intersection (a Tangent and a Secant), we can say that,

Angle Formed by Tangent and Secant = (1/2) (DIFFERENCE of Intercepted Arcs)

Applying to the problem,

∠A = (1/2)(arcBC-arcBD)
∠A = (1/2)(115-35)
Therefore, ∠A =40

From intersecting chord theorem:

When two chords intersect each other inside a circle, the products of their segments are equal

So we can say that,

Finding for x,

10x=8x+12

2x=12

Therefore, x=6
