10x^2 = 50x.....subtract 50x from both sides
10x^2 - 50x = 0...factor
10x(x - 5) = 0

10x = 0
x = 0 <== this one is eliminated because x cannot be zero

x - 5 = 0
x = 5 <== ur answer

A rectangle has area 64 m2. Express the perimeter of the rectangle as a function of the length L of one of its sides. State the

svp [43]

A rectangle is a two-dimensional shape with two sets of equal, parallel sides. These dimensions are the length (L) and the width (W). The formula for the rectangle's area is the product of the two dimensions. The formula for perimeter is

P = 2L + 2W

Since
A = LW = 64
W = 64/L
Substituting to the formula for perimeter would be,

P = 2L + 2(64/L)
P = 2L + 128/L

$\bf tan\left( \frac{x}{2} \right)+\cfrac{1}{tan\left( \frac{x}{2} \right)}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
tan\left(\cfrac{{{ \theta}}}{2}\right)=
\begin{cases}
\pm \sqrt{\cfrac{1-cos({{ \theta}})}{1+cos({{ \theta}})}}
\\ \quad \\

\cfrac{sin({{ \theta}})}{1+cos({{ \theta}})}
\\ \quad \\

\boxed{\cfrac{1-cos({{ \theta}})}{sin({{ \theta}})}}
\end{cases}\\\\$

$\bf -----------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{1-cos(x)}{sin(x)}+\cfrac{1}{\frac{1-cos(x)}{sin(x)}}\implies \cfrac{1-cos(x)}{sin(x)}+\cfrac{sin(x)}{1-cos(x)}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{[1-cos(x)]^2+sin^2(x)}{sin(x)[1-cos(x)]}\implies 
\cfrac{1-2cos(x)+\boxed{cos^2(x)+sin^2(x)}}{sin(x)[1-cos(x)]}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{1-2cos(x)+\boxed{1}}{sin(x)[1-cos(x)]}\implies \cfrac{2-2cos(x)}{sin(x)[1-cos(x)]}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{2[1-cos(x)]}{sin(x)[1-cos(x)]}\implies \cfrac{2}{sin(x)}\implies 2\cdot \cfrac{1}{sin(x)}\implies 2csc(x)$
