Question

Chapter 2.3, Problem 22WE

To determine

Find the lengths of sections RW in terms of x .

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 22WE

The length of the section RW is 2x .

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

T is the midpoint of RS¯ . W is the midpoint of RT¯ . Z is the midpoint of WS¯ .

The length of TZ¯ is x .

Calculation:

Consider, the above condition is shown below the figure,

McDougal Littell Jurgensen Geometry: Student Edition Geometry, Chapter 2.3, Problem 22WE

Since Z is the midpoint of WS¯ .

So, from above figure, the length WZ can be given as,

⇒WZ=x+y=3y2⇒x+y=3y2⇒y=2x ...(1)

From the above figure, the length of RW is y .

The length of RW=2x

Therefore, the length of the section RW is 2x .

To determine

Find the lengths of sections ZS in terms of x .

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 22WE

The length of the section ZS is 3x .

Explanation of Solution

Calculation:

From the above figure the length of ZS is 2y - x .

From equation (1),

ZS= 2y−x=2(2x)−x {From equation (1)}=3x

The length of ZS=3x

Therefore, the length of the section ZS is 3x .

To determine

Find the lengths of sections RS in terms of x .

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 22WE

The length of the section RS is 3x .

Explanation of Solution

Calculation:

From the above the figure the length of RS is 4y .

RS=4y=4(2x) {From equation(1)}=8x

Therefore, the length of the section RS is 8x

To determine

Find the lengths of sections WZ in terms of x .

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 22WE

The length of the section WZ is 3x .

Explanation of Solution

Calculation:

From the above the figure, the length of WZ is y + x .

From equation (1),

WZ=y+x=2x+x=3x

The length of WZ=3x

Therefore, the length of the section WZ is 3x
