Miguel has a square. From the information we know that the side length of the square is 12 cm. Since we are dealing with a square, we know all sides are 12 cm.
Miguel cuts the square along the diagonal. Miguel now has two right triangles.
We know that two sides of each of the right triangles have lengths of 12 cm. We don't know what the other side (diagonal side) is, so we must use the Pythagorean Theorem
a2 + b2 = c2
Let side one be "a" and side two be "b", "c" will be the diagonal side.
122 + 122 = c2
144 + 144 = c2
√288 = c2
The square root of 288 is 16.97
Now we know that the perimeter equals 12+12+16.97 = 40.97 cm
40.97 rounded to the nearest tenth equals 41.0 cm

The perimeter of the square is 16 inches what is the lenghth of a diagonal?
A square bisected by a diagonal produces two right angle triangles, therefore you will solve for the hypotenuse of the triangle: If the perimeter is 16, then each side is 16/4 or 4 inches Thus you have a right triangle that has an opposite leg of 4 and an adjacent leg of 4. Enter pythagoras: h = squareroot(opp^2 + adj^2) = sqr(4^2 + 4^2 ) = sqr(32) = 5.65685425 h = 5.656854 inches.
Base of triangle is 10km and height is 12km what is the perimeter of this triangle?
There are many different triangles with a base of 10 km and height of 12 km, and they have different perimeters. The smallest perimeter occurs if the third vertex is directly above the midpoint of the base; then the altitude from that vertex divides the triangle into two congruent triangles with sides 5, 12, and (by the Pythagorean theorem) 13. The sides of length 12 are shared, so the perimeter of the triangle is 36 km in this case. If the third vertex is moved to one side but kept at the same height, the perimeter increases; there is no upper bound on the perimeter that can be achieved.
How many distinct equilateral triangles with a perimeter of 60 units have integer side lengths?

When a square is divided by diagonal is it called an equilateral triangle?
no but the diagonal divides the square into two equilateral triangles. An equilateral triangle is a triangle that has two sides of the same length

The sum of the perimeters of two congruent triangles is three times the perimeter of the first triangle?
Let's denote the perimeter of the first triangle as P. Since the triangles are congruent, the perimeter of the second triangle is also P. The sum of their perimeters is then 2P. According to the given statement, this sum is three times the perimeter of the first triangle. So we have the equation 2P = 3P. Simplifying, we find that P = 0, which is not a valid solution. Therefore, there is no triangle for which the sum of the perimeters of two congruent triangles is three times the perimeter of the first triangle.
How do you get perimeters from triangles?
The perimeter of any triangle is the sum of its 3 sides
How to measure a triangles perimeter?
You find the three sides of the triangle, and assure that they are all in the same unit, and then add the sides together to find the perimeter of the triangle.
The perimeter of the triangle is 144 What is the length of each side?
You can't tell. There are an infinite number of triangles that all have a perimeter of 144.
You are given that triangle mnp triangle xyz line mp equals 8cm line xz equals 12cm the perimeter of triangle xyz equals 80cm what would be the perimeter of triangle mnp?
It is necessary to mention that the two triangles are similar.Let the perimeter of the triangle MNP be x cm.Since the triangles XYZ and MNP are similar triangles,8/12 = x/80 (multiply both sides by 80)640/12 = x53.3333... = x53 3/9 = x53 1/3 = xThus, the perimeter of the triangle MNP is 53 1/3 cm.
How many triangles have the perimeter of 15cm?
To determine the number of triangles with a perimeter of 15cm, we need to consider the possible side lengths that can form a triangle. The triangle inequality theorem states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side. With a perimeter of 15cm, the possible side lengths could be (5cm, 5cm, 5cm) for an equilateral triangle, (6cm, 5cm, 4cm) for an isosceles triangle, or (7cm, 5cm, 3cm) for a scalene triangle. Therefore, there are 3 possible triangles that can have a perimeter of 15cm.
What is the perimeter of a triangle which a diameter of 8 inches?
Triangles don't have a diameter. They have a base and a height.
What is the perimeter of a square whose one diagonal is 16cm?
To find the perimeter of a square with a diagonal of 16 cm, we first need to determine the side length of the square using the Pythagorean theorem. The diagonal of a square divides it into two right-angled triangles, with the diagonal being the hypotenuse. Using the formula a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where a and b are the two sides of the triangle and c is the hypotenuse, we can calculate that each side of the square is 8√2 cm. Since a square has four equal sides, the perimeter is 4 times the side length, giving us a perimeter of 32√2 cm.
