Recall that the equation to find the perimeter of a rectangle is 2(L + w)

Since we know the length, we can make an equation:

2(3 + w) = 12

Divide both sides by 2:
(3 + w) = 6
w = 3

Now that we know both length and width, we simply have to find their product to solve for area:

a = L * w
a = 3 * 3
a = 9

The area of the rectangle is 9 cm^2.

This is what we know so far.

Perimeter: 12cm

Rectangle Length: 3cm

Theoretically speaking if one side is 3cm (it's a rectangle not a square)

then it cannot be 3cm on all sides because that would be a square.

If it was 3cm on all sides the area would be 9cm. Because it is a rectangle one side would be 3cm and the other 4cm. (12÷3=4)

Answer:

The area is 12 cm.

Equation: 3 ×. 4 = 12cm

Formula: length × width

current rules for telephone area codes allow the use of digits 2-9 for the first digit and 0-9 for the second and third digits.
lukranit [14]
In this question, there are 10 digit phone number which was divided into 3-3-4 digits. Every first digit of the division should be 2-9 which mean only 8 possibilities. The other digits would be 0-9 which mean 10 possibilities. Then the calculation would be:

8*10*10   *    8*10*10    *   8*10*10*10  = 8^3 * 10*7= 512 * 10^7= 5.12 * 10^9

If you convert <span>400,000,000 into the scientific form it will become 4* 10^8. Since 5.12*10^9 > 4 * 10^8, then it is clear that the number should be enough</span>

What is the cot in simplest fraction form????<br> Please help been stuck for 30 minutes!!
Fantom [35]

Answer:

65/72

Step-by-step explanation:

cot is simply cosine over sine or the tangant flipped

the cos (c)=65/97

sin (c) = 72/97

cot would be (65/97)/(72/97)

How do you divide fractions? By multiplying the reciprocal!

cot would be  65/97 * 97/72

the 97s cross out.

65/72
