Question

Length of sides of a right triangle are x-23 ,x, x+9. Find the numeric value of the perimeter of the triangle.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the greatest side is X+9 so it is the Hypotenuse.

(X+9)²=(x-23)²+x²

from here X=8,56 but X ≠8 because if it is so then one side of the triangle will be negative.

so X=56

x-23+X+X+9

56-23+112+9

154

therefore perimeter of triangle is 154 units
