Answer to Problem 16SGR
Distance from Cincinnati to Chicago = 300
Distance from Chicago to Cleveland = 350
Distance from Cleveland to Cincinnati = 250 Scalene.
Explanation of Solution
Distance from Cincinnati to Chicago = x
Distance from Chicago to Cleveland = x + 50
Distance from Cleveland to Cincinnati = x - 50
The triangle can be made as:
The distance from Chicago to Cleveland to Cincinnati and back to Chicago is 900mi. Therefore,
Hence, Distance from Chicago to Cleveland = x + 50 = 300 + 50 = 350
Distance from Cleveland to Cincinnati = x − 50 = 300 − 50 = 250
The triangle formed will be Scalene.
