Length(l)= 2w
width(w)= w

Perimeter(P)= 2w+2l= 72 (simplify expression: divide each side by 2 )
P= w+l= 36 (plug in "2w" for "l")
P= w+(2w)= 36
P= 3w= 36 (divide each side by 3 to find the width)
w= 12 units

find length:
l=2w
l= 2(12)
l= 24 units

Answer:
The length of this rectangle is 24 units and the width is 12 units.

Consider the words typically associated with geometry. Are there any words that would be hard to precisely define? What words ca
LiRa [457]
These words related to geometry that are quite hard to define precisely are called the <em>undefined terms</em>. There are three undefined terms in geometry: the point, the line and the plane. They are called as such, not because you can't necessarily define them. Since these are the basic elements of geometry, they are used to define all other terms in geometry. 

However, you can still describe these three undefined terms. We describe point as an indication of location space. It can be dimensionless, represented using coordinates ans so much more. Lines can go on infinitely in two directions. They don't have any thickness. Planes are two-dimensional flat surfaces that extend indefinitely in all directions. So, you see, there are no specific definitions of these terms. It depends on where you use them. That's what makes it hard to define precisely.

Find the area of the figure?
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

14 m

Step-by-step explanation:

For the triangle, you use the formula A=1/2bh. So in this case it's 3×4×1/2. 3×4 is 12, times 1/2 is 6 m. Now for the rectangle it's just 2×4 which is 8. 8+6 is 14. Hope this helps! If you are still confused please comment!

The average of 21 number is 30.And largest of it is 50 if we remove the largest 50 what will be average of remaining number will
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

29

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of the 21 numbers is 21*30 = 630

Now let's remove 50 from the sum of 630

630-50 = 580

The new average can be found. Remember we removed the largest number so we now have 20 numbers.

580/20 = 29
