Hello!
When finding the perimeter of a rectangle, you have to consider the properties of a rectangle. A rectangle has two pairs of equal sides where one is the width, while the other one is the length.
Now looking back at your question, it says "... a rectangle that is x units wide" ⇒ you let the width = x ; this is the same with "y units long" ⇒ length = y. Perimeter can just be : P = 24.
Therefore,
The equation would be:
x + x + y + y = P.
2x + 2y = P.
(Sub in P = 24)
∴ 2x + 2y = 24. (This should be your answer.)
:) Good luck (Message me if you have any problem)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Pythagorean Theorem.
base² + height² = hypotenuse²
6² + 8² = hypotenuse²
100 = hypotenuse²
hypotenuse = √100 = 10 meters

Angle Bisector - A line, segment or ray that divides an angle into two congruent angles
Reflexive Property - X = X
AAS Postulate - If two angles and a non-included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangle's are congruent
