Hello,
We know that all the angles shown add up to 360 (think of a circle).
We also know that the angle of (6x-1)° is congruent to the angle opposite of it. (the "top left" angle) = 6x - 1°
We also know that the angle of (7x-1)° is congruent to the angle opposite of it.
(the "bottom left" angle) = 7x -1°
Knowing the sum of all angles as well as the angle measures in terms of x, we can add all the angle measures and equal it to 360.
So, we get (7x - 1) + (7x - 1) + (6x - 1) + (6x - 1) = 360
Simplify and we get:
26x - 4 = 360
Add 4 to both sides to get 26x = 364
Divide by 26 on both sides to get 14.
x = 14
Hope this helps!
29.50x - 548= 2,023
Or 2,023= 29.50x - 548
You can solve this by setting up 2 equations and solving quadratically.
perimeter of a rectangle is found by the formula 2*base + 2*height = perimeter.
area is found by base*height=area.
2b+2h = 24 and b*h=27 solving one equation for base or height and substituting in the other equation will give us an equation we can use for this particular problem. solving b*h=27 for b will give us b= 27/h. substituting this into the perimeter equation we get 2(27/h) + 2h = 24. If we use algebra to manipulate the equation we get 24-2h= 2(27/h) so 24-2h = 54/h multiplying both sides by h give (24-2h)h = 54 moving the 24h-2h^2 to the other side gives 0 = 2h^2-24h+54 solving the quadratic for h gives (2h+6)(h+9)=0 so solving for h we get h=6/2 = 3 or h=9 is we use h =9 and plug it into the original equation for 2b+2h=24 then we get 2b+2(9)= 24 so then 2b = 24-18 so b = 6/2 =3. so we get 2(3)+2(9)=24 so 6+18=24 for perimeter and for b*h=27 we get 3*9=27 so the dimensions are 3x9 3 is the shorter side and 9 is the longer side = 3x9
