AB + BC = AC (assuming this is a line not a triangle)

3x + 5x = 8

8x = 8

x = 1

If ABC are the sides of right triangle
AB = 3x, BC =5x, AC =8?
AB^2 + BC^2= AC^2
(3x)^2 + (5x)^2= 82
9x^2 + 25x^2= 64
34x^2 =64
x^2 =32/17
x = sqrt (32/17)

Following non-equation statements are correct about a triangle always:

AB+AC>BC
AB+BC>AC
AC+BC>AB

then:

3x+8>5x
3x+5x>8
5x+8>3x

then 1

You have given the values of AB, BC and AC. What is the question?

2007-01-17 02:20:09 · answer #4 · answered by mani 2 · 1 0

if you r talking about trianglers.. it will be as following:

|AC|^2 = |AB|^2 + |BC|^2

|AC|^2 = 9(x^2) + 25 (x^2)

|AC|^2 = 34 (x^2)

64 = 34 (x^2)

64/34 = x^2

x = SQRT(64/34)

:)

You need to find out whether you need to solve the equation in terms of x=..A....and x=B... and x=C...

or

A=B....x and B=A....x etc
