A rectangle has a perimeter of 72 ft the side lengths are whole numbers what is the area

dimaraw [331]3 years ago

Answer:

Minimum area is : 1 * 35 = 35

Maximum area is : 19 * 17 = 323

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameter (P) of rectangle is calculated using:

P = 2(a+b)

We are given that,

P = 72

=> 2(a+b) = 72

=> a+b = 36

In rectangle, the lengths of both sides are different and a whole number (as mentioned in question), Therefore, the length of smaller side a can be varied from <u>1 to 17.</u> Similarly, the length of larger side varies from 19 to 35.

The area can be easily calculated using a*b.

Minimum area is : 1 * 35 = 35

Maximum area is : 19 * 17 = 323

What is the distance between the penguins and the fish tanks?
astraxan [27]

Answer:

the distance between the penguins and the fish tanks is 81 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A is the point of whales

Let B is the point of Sharks

Let D is the point of Dophines

Let P is the point of penguins

Let F is the point of Fish tank

From a look at the photo, we can find some special properties that:

AB//PF

In triangle ABD and DPF we have

  • ∠BAD=∠PFD(Alternate angles)
  • ∠ADB=∠PDF(Vertically opposite angles)

By AA rule, ABD and DPF are similar to each other

Therefore, using the similarity property, we have:

\frac{AD}{DF} = \frac{AB}{PF}

\frac{30}{45}=\frac{54}{x}\\x=\frac{54{\times}45}{30}\\x=81feet

So the distance between the penguins and the fish tanks is 81 ft
