length = 17 units, breadth = 9 units

Step-by-step explaination:-

Let the length and the breadth of the rectangle be x units and y units respectively.

Then the area of rectangle = xy square units

According to given conditions, we have

(x -5)(y + 3) = xy - 9 and (x + 3)(y + 2) = xy + 67

=> xy + 3x - 5y - 15 = xy - 9

and xy + 2x + 3x + 6 = xy + 67

=> 3x - 5y - 6 = 0......eqn(i)

and 2x + 3y - 61 = 0.....eqn(ii)

Multiplying equation (i) by 2 and equation (ii) by 3, we get...

6x - 10y - 12 = 0....eqn(iii) and,

6x + 9y - 183 = 0....eqn(iv)

Subtracting equation (iii) from equation (iv), we get...

19y - 171 = 0 => y = 9.

Substituting this value of y in equation (ii), we get

2x + 3 × 9 - 61. = 0 => 9x - 34 = 0 => x = 17.

Hence, the length of rectangle = 17 units and

breadth = 9 units.

The vertex angle of an isosceles triangle measures 64 degrees. What is the measure of its base angles?
Dvinal [7]
So hmmm check the picture below

in an isosceles triangle, two sides are equal, and thus the angles those twin legs make, are also twin angles

let's say the angle made is "a", so all internal angles will be 64 + a + a = 180
or 64 + 2a = 180

thus 2a = 180 - 64 => 2a = 116, thus a = 116/2
