Answer:

Area = 32feet²

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangule = 2(length+width)

Then:

g = 2w               Eq. 1

2(g+w) = 24       Eq. 2

g = length

w = width

From Eq. 2:

(2*g + 2*w) = 24

2g + 2w = 24      

2w = 24 - 2g            Eq. 3

Matching Eq. 1  and Eq. 3

g = 24 - 2g

g + 2g = 24

3g = 24

g = 24/3

g = 8 feet

From Eq. 1

g = 2w

8 = 2w

8/2 = w

w = 4 feet

Check:

From Eq. 2

2(g+w) = 24

2(8+4) = 24

2*12 = 24

Answer:

Area of a rexctangle = length * width

Then:

Area = 8feet * 4feet

Area = 32feet²

How many degrees are each angle of a regular 7 sided shape?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Here is a diagram of a seven sided regular polygon. You use this diagram to find out how many degrees total are in the interior of a the heptagon. There are 5 such triangles which means that since each triangle has 180o the total amount of the interior angles must be 5 * 180 = 900

Since there are 7 interior angles, the answer to how large each one of them is is found by

900/7 = 129.57 which is slightly off because it is a rounded error.

In general, the size of the angles  in a  regular polygon

180(n - 2 ) / n

Where n is the number of degrees in each interior angle. For example for an 8 sided figure you would get

180(8 - 2) / 8 = 180 * 6/8 = 133 degrees.
