Answer:
BC=11.9
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the perimeter of a rectangle is twice the length, plus twice the width.
P = 2L + 2W
We also know that the perimeter is 156.
P = 156
Finally, we know that the width is 12 less than the length.
W = L - 12.
The next thing that we do is substitute the information that we have into the original equation:
P = 2L + 2W
156 = 2L + 2(L - 12)
From this point we start to solve
156 = 2L + 2L - 24 <---we multiplied the '2' through the parenthesis
156 + 24 = 2L + 2L - 24 + 24
180 = 2L + 2L <--- getting like terms on same sides
180 = 4L <---combining like terms
180/4 = 4L/4 <--- getting like terms on same sides
45 = L <---now we have a value for L
Now we take the known value for L and substitute it in to our equation for W
W = L - 12
W = 45 - 12
W = 33
So now we have Length = 45 and Width = 33.

Answer:
The angle Matt drew = 180°
Step-by-step explanation:
The total angle formed by the 8 angles Matt drew in the circle equals 360° because one revolution of a circle is the same as the angle about a point which equals 360°.
Let the equal angles drawn = x
x + x + x + x + x + x + x + x = 360°
8 × x = 360°
8x = 360
x = 45°
∴ each angle drawn = 45°
Next, we are told that Matt drew another angle that has the same measurement as four (4) of the sections (angles) in the circle.
Finding the measure of this angle:
1 section in the circle = 45 (<em>shown above</em>)
∴ 4 sections = 45 × 4 = 180°
∴ The angle Matt drew = 180°
