Huh??
Which triangles?
b)write another expression in simplest form that shows the difference between the perimeter of the larger triangle and the perimeter of the smaller triangle.
Which triangles?
@Miss_queen
a) Expression for the perimeter of the smaller triangle:
The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides. So, for the smaller triangle, the expression for the perimeter would be:
Perimeter_smaller_triangle = a + b + c
b) Expression for the difference between the perimeters:
To find the difference between the perimeters of the larger and smaller triangles, we subtract the perimeter of the smaller triangle from the perimeter of the larger triangle. Therefore, the expression for the difference in perimeters is:
Perimeter_difference = (x + y + z) - (a + b + c)
Please note that we need specific values or relationships between the sides of the triangles to simplify these expressions further.
