The perimeter of a rectangle is 72 cm. The length is 3 more than twice the width What

solmaris [256]

<h3><u>Solution</u></h3>

<u>Given </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

Perimeter of rectangle = 72 cm
The length is 3 more than twice the width.

<u>F</u><u>i</u><u>n</u><u>d</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

Dimensions of rectangle

<h3 /><h3><u>Explantion</u></h3>

<u>Using </u><u>Formula</u>

$\boxed{\underline{\tt{\red{\:(perimeter_{rectang}\:=\:2\times (Length+Width)}}}}$

<u>Let,</u>

Length of Rectangle = x cm
Breadth of Rectangle = y cm

<u>According</u><u> to</u><u> question</u><u>,</u>

==> perimeter of Rectangle = 72

==> 2(x+y) = 72

==> x + y = 72/2

==> x + y = 36_________________(1)

<u>Again,</u>

==> x = 2y + 3

==> x - 2y = 3__________________(2)

<u>Subtract</u><u> </u><u>equ(</u><u>1</u><u>)</u><u> </u><u>&</u><u> </u><u>equ(</u><u>2</u><u>)</u>

==> y + 2y = 36 - 3

==> 3y = 33

==> y = 33/3

==> y = 11

<u>keep </u><u>in </u><u>equ(</u><u>1</u><u>)</u>

==> x - 2×11 = 3

==> x = 3 + 22

==> x = 25

<h3><u>Hence</u></h3>

<u>Length</u><u> of</u><u> </u><u>Rectangle</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>5</u><u> </u><u>cm</u>
<u>Width </u><u>of </u><u>Rectangle</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>1</u><u> </u><u>cm</u>

Points A, R and G are points of tangency. Find the perimeter of ∆NET below.

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

$\small\mathfrak\red{here \: is \: your \: solution..} \\ \\ we \: know \: that \: tangent \\ from \: a \: same point \: are \: equal \\ \\ tr = 9 | an = 7 | eg = 5 \\ \\ tr = ta | an = gn | eg = re \\ \\ ta = 9 | gn =7 | re = 5 \\ \\ hence \: perimeter \: = 2(9 + 7 + 5) \\ \\ perimeter = 42 \: \\ \\ \huge\mathfrak\purple{hope \: it \: helps...}$

Use the quadratic formula to solve for the roots of the following equation.<br> x 2 – 4x + 13 = 0

Artyom0805 [142]

Quadratic Formula: $x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$ , with a = x^2 coefficient, b = x coefficient, and c = constant

With our equation, plug in the values:

$x=\frac{4\pm \sqrt{(-4)^2-4*1*13}}{2*1}$

Next, solve the exponent and multiplications:

$x=\frac{4\pm \sqrt{16-52}}{2}$

Next, solve the subtraction:

$x=\frac{4\pm \sqrt{-36}}{2}$

Next, factor out i (i = √-1):

$x=\frac{4\pm \sqrt{36}i}{2}$

Next, solve the square root:

$x=\frac{4\pm 6i}{2}$

Lastly, divide and <u>your answer is:</u>

$x=2\pm 3i$
