Step-by-step explanation:

the area of a rectangle is

length × width

in our case

length × width = 70 m²

length = 3×width - 11

we can use this second equation in the first and get

(3×width - 11) × width = 70

3×width² - 11×width - 70 = 0

the general solution to a quadratic equation is

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

in our case

a = 3

b = -11

c = -70

x = (11 ± sqrt((-11)² - 4×3×-70))/(2×3) =

= (11 ± sqrt(121 + 840))/6 =

= (11 ± sqrt(961))/6

x1 = (11 + 31)/6 = 42/6 = 7

x2 = (11 - 31)/6 = -20/6 = -10/3

the negative solution is not applicable for a length in an object.

so, only x1 = 7 m is our solution.

the width of the rectangle is 7 m.

the length = 3×width - 11 = 3×7 - 11 = 21-11 = 10 m

Answer:

m = 54

Step-by-step explanation:

The secant- secant angle 20° is half the difference of the intercepted arcs, that is

\frac{1}{2} (160 - 2m - 12) = 20° ( multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction )

- 2m + 148 = 40° ( subtract 148 from both sides )

- 2m = - 108 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

m = 54
