Question

In ΔBCA, BA = 17 cm, BF = 6 cm, CG = 9 cm. Find the perimeter of ΔBCA.

Answer 1

Answer:

52 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

answer is 52 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

BA = 17, BF = 6, and CG = 9

triangle sides BF and BH are congruent because they are tangent lines along the same curve

BH is equal to 6 since BF is equal to 6

this applies to CG and CF and AG and AH

CG is equal to 9

so CF is equal to 9

now we add 6 + 9 for the measurement of side CB

CB = 15

now we do the same for the other two sides

we already know BA = 17 so we subtract it from BH = 6 to find the measurement of AH

AH is equal to 11 and is tangent across the same curve as AG

AG = 11

now we add AG to CG

11 + 9 = 20

now we know  all the side lengths

CB + BA + AC = Perimeter

15 + 17 + 20 = 52

Perimeter of triangle BCA = 52

I don't know why I went through all the trouble if I know no one is going to see this :'(. I just thought the other guy gave the wrong reasons
