Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In triangle XYZ, if XY = 8 cm, YZ = 15 cm, and XZ = 17 cm, what is the length of the longest side? (2020)
  • Step 1: Identify the sides of triangle XYZ. The sides are XY = 8 cm, YZ = 15 cm, and XZ = 17 cm.
  • Step 2: Compare the lengths of the sides to find the longest one.
  • Step 3: Look at the values: 8 cm (XY), 15 cm (YZ), and 17 cm (XZ).
  • Step 4: Determine which number is the largest. 8 cm is less than 15 cm, and 15 cm is less than 17 cm.
  • Step 5: Conclude that the longest side is XZ, which measures 17 cm.
