So given a rectangle
sides are
_<u>x</u>_
x-5|__|x-5
x
the perimeter is 90 inches
perimeter is
x + x + (x-5) + (x-5) = 90
combine like terms
2x + 2(x-5) = 90
distribute
2x + 2x-10 = 90
combine like terms
4x - 10 = 90
add 10 to both sides
4x= 100
divide both sides by 4
x = 25
now to find the length of a side
x is 25
and x-5 is 20
to check and see if that's right:
25 + 25 + 20 + 20 =?= 90
50 + 40 =?=
90 = 90
Now to find the area
A = b * h
so
x * (x-5)
substitute
25* 20
500
The area of the rectangle is 500
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
on the triangle.
I think that is right as I just was reading on this.
The triangle's height would have to be 2 times that of the rectangles. To know this, you canlook at the formulas for the Area of each shape.
Rectangle: bh
Triangle: bh/2
A triangle is just a rectangle cut in half. In order for the areas to be the same asleep as the bases, the only way it can be true is if the height were 2 times larger than the height of the rectangle.
Answer:
53.5 and 36.5
The Sum of two angles is 90 degree
Is called complementary angle
53.5 + 36.5 =90
53.5 - 36.5 =17
