Question

Suppose triangle TIP and triangle TOP are isosceles triangles. Also suppose that TI=5, PI=7, and PO=11. What are all the possible lengths TO? Enter the possible values, separated by commas.

Answer 1

7, 11

Step-by-step explanation:

its right- trust me-

Answer 2

Three Answers: 5, 7, 11

===========================================

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to the diagram below.

In order for triangle TOP to be isosceles, the missing side x must be either 5 or 7. This way we have exactly two sides that are the same length.

--------

If TP = 5, then the value of y could be either 5 or 11 to ensure that triangle TIP has exactly two sides the same length.

If TP = 7, then y = 7 or y = 11 for similar reasons.

--------

Therefore, the possible lengths for segment TO are 5, 7, and 11.
