The perimeter p of the rectangle with length l and width w is:
p = 2l + 2w
that is, two times its length and two times its width, lets solve for the width w and substitute known data:
<span>p = 2l + 2w
</span>2w = p - 2l
w = (<span>p - 2l</span>)/2
w = (56 - (2*12))/2
w = (56 - 24)/2
w = 32/2
w = 16
therefore the width of the rectangle is 16 in
Answer: 7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
use pythagorean theorem
13^2 + b^2 = 15^2
- 13^2
b^2 = 56 - square root
= 7.5
Answer:
1 1/3 in 4 equal parts: okay so.. 1/3 x 4 = 1 1/3 so therefore,
Step-by-step explanation:
to break it into 4 equal parts, you need to do as such (you can draw thic pic if u want) (i hope you can read this i have <u><em>terrible</em></u> handwriting)
Answer: 289 ft.
Explanation:
You can form a right triangle with these features:
1) Base = adjacent-leg = 500 feet
2) angle between the hypotenuse and the base = 30° ( I use 30° instead of 30', because 30' does not make sense, it is a too small angle)
3) Height = opposite-leg = height of the Statue of LIberty = x
Now, use the equation for the trigonometric ratio tangent:
tan(angle) = opposite-leg / adjacent-leg
=> tan (30°) = x / 500ft
=> x = 500ft * tan(30°)
x = 288.67 ft which rounded to the nearest foot is 289 ft.
on the very far left it says (5,-1.5)
