The sides are 2x, 3x-5 and 4x+2
perimiter is the sum of the sides

a.
2x+3x-5+4x+2=63 is an equation

b.
solve
group like terms
2x+3x+4x-5+2=65
add like terms
9x-3=65
add 3 to both sides
9x=68
divide both sides by 9
x=68/9


2x=2(68/9)=136/9 in
3x-5=3(68/9)-5=(68/3)-5=(68/3)-(15/3)=53/3
4x+2=4(68/9)+2=272/9+2=272/9+18/2=290/9

the side lengths are 136/9in, 53/3in, and 290/9in

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So there we have it, <A=135° and <B=45°. This should check when you add them together ("<A and <B are supplementary which means that together their angles equal 180°"). Does 135°+45=180°?     YES!

I Really hope it helps

Can someone explain the steps to me. Please?

Actually i’m pretty sure what you would do is multiply 24,50 by 5, because he wrote 5 checks of that amount. then you would subtract that from the total of $450. Then multiply 45 by 3 because he deposited three deposits of $45, and add that amount to the number you got after subtracting 24.50

It should be noted that Polygon 3 and polygon 4 are similar to polygon 1.

<h3>What exactly is polygon?</h3>

In geometry, it should be noted that a polygon is a plane figure which is described by a finite number of straight line segments that are connected in order to form a closed polygonal chain.

In this case, the bounded plane region, the bounding circuit, may be called a polygon. Also, a similarity transformation is the conformal mapping whose transformation matrix are identical.

In this case, it should be noted that Polygon 3 and polygon 4 are similar to polygon 1.
