A right triangle has legs of length 6 and b and a hypotenuse of length c . The perimeter of the triangle is 12. Compute c.
A right triangle has legs of length 6 and b and a hypotenuse of length c .
The perimeter of the triangle is 12. Compute c.
If the perimeter is 12, and "a" is 6, that means "b" + "c" is 6.
If "b" + "c" is 6, that means the hypotenuse is some value less than 6.
But, the hypotenuse of a right triangle cannot be shorter than one of its legs.
This triangle does not exist.
