---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Define length and width
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let the width be x
Width = x
Length = 3x

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form equation and solve for x
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
x(3x) = 48
3x² = 48
x² = 48 ÷ 3
x² = 16
x = √16
x = 4

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find length and width
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Width = x = 4
Length = 3x = 3(4) = 12

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Width = 4cm, Length = 12cm

Find the measure of a central angle of a regular polygon with 10 sides
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

114 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the measure of all angles in a regular polygon is (n-2)180, where n = total number of sides.

Thus, we substitute n for 10, and you get:

(10-2)180=1440

If the shape is a regular polygon and it has ten sides, meaning all sides are equal, then all you do is divide 1440 by 10, to get the final answer of 114.

A central angle in a regular ten-sided polygon would be 144 degrees.
