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

Since 5 is divisible by 10 and 5, we can factor out a 5 from both terms.
The common factors for 20 is 1,5
25 is 1,5
40 is 1,5

Using the distributive property an equivalent expression would be 9z-54
Suppose m∠1 = x degree
m∠2 = 17 x degree
As angle 1 & 2 are supplementary angles so
m∠1 +m∠2 =180 degree...... eq 1
Substituting the values of angle 1 & 2 in eq 1, we get
x +17x =180
18x=180
x= 180/18 =10 degree
17 x= 170 degree
m∠1 = 10 degree m∠2 = 170 degree.
