The area of rectangle R is 48. If its sides are whole numbers, then its perimeter cannot be__?

An odd number. That's because the formula for the perimeter is

P = 2* (L + W)

Multiplying by 2 is never going to produce an odd number.  The question is much trickier than it looks. What happens when you have a square with sides of 7.

The area = s^2

Area = 7 * 7

Area = 49 and that's odd. But can you get an odd perimeter? The answer is no. The perimeter of a square is 4s

P = 4s. If s = 7

P = 4*7

P = 28 which is even. If there is another answer, I'm unaware of it.

A: P = 2*(6 + 8) = 2*14 = 28 A is a correct Perimeter.

B: P = 2*(3 + 16) = 2*19 = 38 B is a correct Perimeter.

C:P = 2*? Can't find anything. C is the answer.

D:P = 2*(1 + 48) = 2*49 = 98. D is correct.

Answer: C

Write the equation of the circle whose center is (-5, -8) with diameter 12
lora16 [44]

Answer:

(x + 5)^2 + (y + 8)^2 = 6^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A circle formula: (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2

We are given diameter. To find the radius divide diameter by 2.

d = 12

12/2 = r = 6

H and K are given to be (-5 , -8)

(x - (-5))^2 + (y - (-8))^2 = 6^2

(x + 5)^2 + (y + 8)^2 = 6^2

I have plot this equation to confirm my answer is correct where the origin is (-5 , -8) and has a radius of 6.

Answer:

second option

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

∠ 1 and 33° form a straight angle and are supplementary, thus

∠ 1 = 180° - 33° = 147°

----------------------------------

The third angle in the triangle on the left is

180° - (33 + 47)° = 180° - 80° = 100°, thus

∠ 2 = 180° - 100° = 80°

--------------------------------------

∠ 2 and the angle in the triangle form a straight angle and are supplementary,

angle = 180° - 80° = 100°

The third angle in the triangle on the right is

180° - (100 + 48)° = 180° - 148° = 32°, thus

∠ 3 = 180° - 32° = 148° ( straight angle )

Thus

∠ 1 = 147°, ∠ 2 = 80°, ∠ 3 = 148°
