Answer: 10 inches × 14 inches
Work:
length = x inches
width = x - 4 inches
perimeter = 2(l+w)
48 = 2[(x)+(x - 4)]
48 = 2(2x - 4)
24 = 2x - 4
28 = 2x
14 = x
length = x inches = 14 inches
width = x - 4 inches = 14 - 4 = 10 inches
A = -11
B= -12
This is because of how calculations work in negatives. Because they are both negative they work similarly to addition
The number next to a variable, for example: 5x, is called a coefficient. And all you do is multiply the number with the variable
The value of x in the given sector is determined as 7.1.
<h3>Area of the sector</h3>
Total area of the sector = area of the shaded + area of the unshaded
Since shaded and unshaded areas are equal, the value of x is calculated as follows;
πr²θ/360 = πx²60/360 + πx²60/360
πr²θ/360 = 2(πx²θ/360)
πr² = 2(πx²)
r² = 2x²
x² = r²/2
x² = (10²)/2
x² = 50
x = √50
x = 7.1
Thus, the value of x in the given sector is determined as 7.1.
