I think the question for this problem is to find the slope of the staircase. The slope is a ratio of change of the y-coordinates and x-coordinates of points. It is written as Δy/Δx especially in analytical geometry. It could also be simply the ratio of the rise or vertical height to the run or horizontal length.

Therefore, the slope of the stair case is

Slope = rise/run = 14/20 = 0.7

How is it that a square is a rectangle but a rectangle ins't a square?
Helen [10]
Beacuse  <span>A square by definition is a "plane figure having four equal sides." Rectangles' sides are not equal and hence cannot be a square. 

A rectangle by definition is a "four-sided plane figure with 4 right angles" - which also implies that a square can be a rectangle because it is also a four-sided plane figure with 4 right angles...... hope this helps</span>

The sum of the measures of two complementary angles is 90°. If one angle measures 24° more than twice the measure of the​ other,
geniusboy [140]
X + y = 90

Let's make 'x' the bigger angle and 'y' the smaller.
X is 24 more than twice y.
x = 24 + 2y

Now plug that into the x of the first equation.
(24 + 2y) + y = 90

Combine like terms.
24 + 3y = 90

Subtract 24 from both sides.
3y = 66

Divide both sides by 3.
y = 22

The measure of the smaller angle is 22°
