Area of rectangular post card = length x width
For the given post card: 
length = 4 in
width = (3+b) in
area = 24 in^2

So, substituting in the equation of the area:
24 = 4 x (3+b)
24 = 12 + 4b
24 - 12 = 4b
12 = 4b
b = 3 in

Therefore:
the length of the postcard = 4 inch
the width of the postcard = b+3 = 3 + 3 = 6 inch

A triangle has sides with lengths of 60 centimeters, 63 centimeters, and 87 centimeters. Is it a right triangle
lozanna [386]
We can check this by seeing if Pythagorean's theorem applies. The longest side is the hypotenuse, so let's see if this is true:
60^2+63^2 = 87^2
7569 = 7569

This is, indeed correct, thus, this <em>is </em><em>a right triangle.</em>
