So given a rectangle
sides are
_<u>x</u>_
x-5|__|x-5
x
the perimeter is 90 inches
perimeter is
x + x + (x-5) + (x-5) = 90
combine like terms
2x + 2(x-5) = 90
distribute
2x + 2x-10 = 90
combine like terms
4x - 10 = 90
add 10 to both sides
4x= 100
divide both sides by 4
x = 25
now to find the length of a side
x is 25
and x-5 is 20
to check and see if that's right:
25 + 25 + 20 + 20 =?= 90
50 + 40 =?=
90 = 90
Now to find the area
A = b * h
so
x * (x-5)
substitute
25* 20
500
The area of the rectangle is 500
Hope this helps :)
Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees. The complement of 59 degrees would be 31 degrees, since 31 + 59 = 90.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
∠2= ∠4 { alternate interior angles}
∠2= 65
∠1 + ∠2 = 180 {linear pair}
∠1 + 65 = 180
∠1 = 180- 65
∠1 = 115
Do 12/16 which equals 0.75
0.75 is equal to 3/4
so the answer is 3/4
Hope this helps!
#9
3/8 x 4/11 = 3/22
#12
9/20 x 4/5 = 9/25
