Answer: Perimeter of ΔWXY is given by
[tex]XW+XY+WY\\=4.04+4.56+5.86\\=14.46 cm[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
[tex]QR=2.93cm\\RS=2.04cm\\QS=2.28cm[/tex]
By using Mid point theorem, "if line joining the midpoints of the any two sides , then this line becomes parallel to the third side and it becomes half of the third side".
So here , if consider firstly Q and R are mid-points of XW and XY then,
QR║WY so,
[tex]WY= 2\times QR\\WY=2\Ttimes 2.93\\WY=5.86cm[/tex]
Similarly,
QS║XY so,
[tex]XY=2\times QS\\XY=2\times 2.28\\XY=4.56cm[/tex]
Similarly,
RS║XW, so
[tex]XW=2\times RS\\XW=2\times 2.04\\XW=4.04cm[/tex]
Perimeter of ΔWXY is given by
[tex]XW+XY+WY\\=4.04+4.56+5.86\\=14.46 cm[/tex]
