I'm guessing that the 2 in that is ^2? if so, it opens down.
Answer:
Area = 27 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
let L be the length of the rectangle
w the width
P the perimeter
A the area
<u>Formulas</u> :
P = 2×(L + w)
A = L × w
<u>We are Given</u> :
L = 3w
P = 2×(L + w)
⇔ 24 = 2×(3w + w)
⇔ 24 = 2×4w
⇔ 24 = 8w
⇔ w = 24/8 = 3
Then
L = 3w = 3×3 = 9
We obtain L = 9 and w = 3.
Then
A = L × w
= 9 × 3
= 27
Do a proportion
8/100= x/70
Cross multiply and divide
70 x 8= 560
560 divided by 100= 5.6
Answer is 5.6
You also could have done .08 x 70 which is also 5.6
8x + 3× + 9x = 180
20x = 180
x = 180/20
x = 9
The smallest angle is: 3×9 = 27 degrees
Note: 180 degrees is the sum of angles in a triangle
