The possible values of x is x > 10

<h3>How to determine the possible values of x?</h3>

The dimension of the rectangle is given as:

Length = 6

Width = x + 2

The area is calculated as;

Area = Length * width

So, we have

Area = 6 * (x + 2)

The area is greater than 72

So, we have

6 * (x + 2) > 72

Divide by 6

x + 2 > 12

Subtract 2 from both sides

x > 10

Hence, the possible values of x is x > 10

How do you find the area and perimeter of a rectangle. And how do you find the area and perimeter of a square?

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2 b + 2 h , where is the base (or width) and is the height (or length). If a rectangle is a square, with sides of length , the formula for perimeter is P s q u a r e = 2 s + 2 s = 4 s and the formula for area is A s q u a r e = s ⋅ s = s 2

Mark the statements that are true.

lara [203]

Answer:

Correct answers:

A. An angle that measures $\frac{\pi}{6}$ radians also measures $30^o$

C. An angle that measures $180^o$ also measures $\pi$ radians

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the formula to transform radians to degrees and vice-versa:

$\angle\,radians=\frac{\pi}{180^o} \,* \,\angle degrees\\ \\\angle\,degrees=\frac{180^o}{\pi} \,* \,\angle radians$

Therefore we can investigate each of the statements, and find that when we have a $\frac{\pi}{6}$ radians angle, then its degree formula becomes:

$\angle\,degrees=\frac{180^o}{\pi} \,* \,\angle radians\\\angle\,degrees=\frac{180^o}{\pi} \,* \,\frac{\pi}{6} \\\angle\,degrees=\frac{180^o}{6} \\\angle\,degrees=30^o$
