ok so original perimeter = 12 +12 + 17 +17 = 58 mm


if dimensions are multiplied by 12:

12*12 = 144 and 17*12 = 204

 new perimeter = 144 +144 +204 +204 = 696 mm


696 / 58 = 12


so the perimeter increased by a factor of 12, answer is A

Answer:

The perimeter is increased by a factor of 12.

Option (a) is correct .

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 (Length + Breadth)

As given

A rectangle has a length of 12 millimeters and a width of 17 millimeters.

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 × (12 + 17)

                                         = 2 × 29

                                         = 58 millimeters ²

As given

when the dimensions are multiplied by 12 .

New Length = 12 × 12

                    = 144 millimeter

New Breadth = 17 × 12

                      = 204 millimeter

Thus

New Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 × (144 + 204)

                                         =  2 × 348

                                         = 696 millimeter²

\frac{New\ perimeter\ of\ a\ rectangle}{Perimeter\ of\ a\ rectangle} = \frac{696}{58}

\frac{New\ perimeter\ of\ a\ rectangle}{Perimeter\ of\ a\ rectangle} = 12

Therefore the perimeter is increased by a factor of 12.

Option (a) is correct .

In the diagram, the radius is 7 and tangent AB has length of 24. Determine the length of OA rounded to the nearest whole number
katen-ka-za [31]

Given the radius r and the tangent line AB, the length of the line OA is 24 units

<h3>How to determine the length OA?</h3>

The radius r and the tangent line AB meet at a right angle.

By Pythagoras theorem, we have:

AB² = OA² + r²

So, we have:

24² = OA² + 7²

Rewrite as:

OA² = 24² - 7²

Evaluate

OA² = 527

Take the square root of both sides

OA = 23

Hence, the length of OA is 24 units
