Answer:

<em>The length of a side of the square is 8 unit.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, the length of a side of the square is a unit.

<u>Formula for perimeter of square</u>:  P=4(side) = 4a

<u>Formula for area of square</u>:   A=(side)^2 = a^2

Given that, the area is 32 more than the perimeter. So, the equation will be......

a^2= 4a+32

Moving all terms to the left side, we will get.....

a^2-4a-32=0

Now, factoring out the left side.......

a^2-8a+4a-32=0\\ \\ a(a-8)+4(a-8)=0\\ \\ (a-8)(a+4)=0

<u>Using 'zero-product property'</u>, we will get......

a-8=0\\ a=8\\ \\ and\\ \\ a+4=0\\ a=-4

<em>(Negative value is ignored as the side length can't be in negative)</em>

So, the length of a side of the square is 8 unit.

Find the value of x in the isosceles triangle shown below.
Reptile [31]

Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find x

The height meets the base at a right angle

The base is bisected ( cut in half) so the base is 6 the height is 8

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

6^2 + 8^2 = x^2

36+64 = x^2

100 = x^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(100) = sqrt(x^2)

10 = x

The measures of the three angles of a triangle are given by 1. 3x +1 2. 2x -3, and 9x. What is the measure of the smallest angle
nordsb [41]
Since the total measure of all the angles of a triangle is always 180, solve for x with the equation: 3x+1+2x-3+9x=180. x=13. Now plug in x and look for the smallest one, which will be B. 23 degrees.
