P = 2(L + W)
P = 36
36 = 2(L + W)
36/2 = L + W
18 = L + W....L = 18 - W

A = L * W
A = 65
L = 18 - W

65 = W(18 - W)
65 = 18W - W^2
W^2 - 18W + 65 = 0
(W - 13)(W - 5) = 0

W - 13 = 0  .....L = 18 - 13
W = 13            L = 5
                        

W - 5 = 0         L = 18 - 5
W = 5              L = 13

Not exactly sure which (length or width)...but one is 13 ft and the other is 5 ft

Answer: If the length of rectangle is 13 feet , then the breadth of rectangle would be 18-13=5 feet.

If the length of rectangle is 5 feet, then the breadth of rectangle would be 18-5=13 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Perimeter of rectangular region = 36 feet

Area of rectangular region = 65 sq feet

Let the length of rectangle be 'l'.

Let the breadth of rectangle be 'b'.

As we know the formula for perimeter of rectangle :

Perimeter=2(l+b)\\\\36=2(l+b)\\\\18=l+b\\\\l=18-b

And area of rectangle = Length × Breadth

so, it becomes

65=b(18-b)\\\\65=18b-b^2\\\\b^2-18b+65=0\\\\b^2-13b-5b+65=0\\\\b(b-13)-5(b-13)=0\\\\(b-13)(b-5)=0\\\\b=13,5

Hence, If the length of rectangle is 13 feet , then the breadth of rectangle would be 18-13=5 feet.

If the length of rectangle is 5 feet, then the breadth of rectangle would be 18-5=13 feet.

What type of triangle is formed by joining the points D(7, 3), E(8, 1), and
KiRa [710]

D(7, 3), E(8, 1), and  F(4, -1)

We calculate the squared distances between the points:

DE^2 = 1^2 + 2^2 = 5

EF^2=4^2+2^2=20

DF^2=3^2+4^2=25

Since DF^2=DE^2+EF^2 we have a right triangle with hypotenuse DF.
