Suppose the length of the triangle is x, if the perimeter of the rectangle is 100 ft, the width of the rectangle will be (50-x) ft.
Area of rectangle will be:
A=length*width
A=x(50-x)
A=50x-x^2
at maximum area, dA/dx=0
thus
dA/dx=50-2x=0
solving for x we get
2x=50
x=25
thus for maximum area length=25 ft
the size of the width will be
50-x=50-25=25 ft
thus the maximum area will be:
25*25=625 sq. feet

Contact [7]
There are 5280 feet in a mile
There are 3600 seconds in an hour

to get 40 miles per hour
we multiply 40 by 5280 and divide by 3600

40 * 5280 / 3600

this gets us 58.666666...
but since they want us to round to the nearest whole number, our answer would be 59 feet per second

What is the perimeter of a square whose diagonal is 3 square root 2? Show all work on how you got your answer
Alika [10]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Diagonal of square= 3\sqrt{2}

To find the perimeter of square, we need to find the length of sides of square.

∴ Using the formula of diagonal to find side of square.

Formula; Diagonal= s\sqrt{2}

Where, s is side of square.

⇒ 3\sqrt{2} = s\sqrt{2}

Dividing both side by √2

⇒s= \frac{3\sqrt{2} }{\sqrt{2} }

∴s= 3

Hence, Length of side of square is 3.

Now, finding the perimeter of square.

Formula; Perimeter= 4s

⇒Perimeter= 4\times 3

∴ Perimeter= 12

Hence, Perimeter of square is 12.
