Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) to find hcf, first look at what both 12 and 16 are divisible by

12 and 16 are divisible by 2

12/2=6

16/2=8

now we have 6,8

6 and 8 are divisible by 2 as well

6/2=3

8/2=4

3,4 is what we are left with

since we had to divide these numbers by 2 both times, multiply them.

2*2=4

4 is the hcf

Answer:

these are supplementary

and x = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

one straight line = 180 degrees

there are only two angles making up this 180 degree line, so by definition they are supplementary

76 + 2x + 4 = 180

80 + 2x = 180

2x = 100

x = 50

Answer:

$12$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sqrt{12} \times\sqrt{12}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:radical\:rule}:\quad \sqrt{a}\sqrt{a}=a,\:\quad \:a\ge 0$

$\sqrt{12}\sqrt{12}=12$

$=12$

Answer:

80 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The length of a rectangular garden is 10 yards and its width is 10 feet.

To find:

Perimeter of the garden in feet ?

Solution:

Length = 10 yards

1 yard = 3 feet

10 yards = 3 $\times$ 10 = 30 feet

Breadth = 10 feet

Now, as we know:

$Perimeter\ of\ rectangle=2(length+breadth)$

$=2(30+10)\\ \\ =2(40)\\ \\ =80\ feet$

Hence, the perimeter of the garden is 80 feet.
