Answer:
The answer is B.
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to use Pythogorean Theorem, c² = a² + b² where c is the hypotenuse and a,b is the side lengths :

Let a = 40,
Let b = 9,





*Take note, hypotenuse will <u>a</u><u>l</u><u>w</u><u>a</u><u>y</u><u>s</u><u> </u><u>b</u><u>e</u><u> </u><u>t</u><u>h</u><u>e</u><u> </u><u>l</u><u>o</u><u>n</u><u>g</u><u>e</u><u>s</u><u>t</u><u> </u><u>l</u><u>e</u><u>n</u><u>g</u><u>t</u><u>h</u> among the 3 lengths.
*Pythogorean Theorem can only applied in a right-angle triangle.

Answer:
length: 12 ft
area: 72 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L represent the length of the mat in feet. Then L/2 is the width and the perimeter is ...
P = 36 = 2(L +L/2) = 3L . . . . . substitute the given information and simplify
12 = L . . . . . . divide by 3
The length of the mat is 12 ft.
__
The width of the mat is L/2 = 6 ft, and the area is the product of length and width.
Area = (12 ft)(6 ft) = 72 ft^2
The area of the mat is 72 square feet.
12 in each basket.
28÷4= 7
12÷4= 3
8÷4=2
7+3+2= 12
Hope this helps!
