Answer:
927.0 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: find Z
m < Z = 180 - (28 + 118) (sum of ∆)
= 180 - 146
Z = 34°
Step 2: Find side XY using the law of sines
Cross multiply
Divide both sides by 0.469
XY ≈ 50 cm
Step 3: find the area.
Area of ∆ = ½*XY*YZ*sin(Y)
XY ≈ 50 cm
= ½*50*42*sin(118)
= 25*42*0.8829
Area = 927.045
Area ≈ 927.0 cm² (nearest tenth)
The greatest common factor is 2a
Answer:
The length is 6 feet and the width is 4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of the yard
The width can be represented by x - 2, since it is 2 less than the length.
Use the perimeter formula, P = 2l + 2w, where l is the length and w is width
Plug in the expressions and perimeter:
20 = 2x + 2(x - 2)
Solve for x:
20 = 2x + 2x - 4
20 = 4x - 4
24 = 4x
6 = x
So, the length is 6. Plug this into x - 2 to find the width
x - 2
6 - 2
= 4
So, the length is 6 feet and the width is 4 feet
