A rectangle is 5 times as long as it is wide. The perimeter is 70 cm. Find the dimensions of the rectangle. Round to the nearest
tenth if necessary. a. 14 cm by 70 cm c. 11.7 cm by 29.2 cm b. 5.8 cm by 64.2 cm d. 5.8 cm by 29.2 cm
1 answer:
Let the width = X, then the length would be 5x ( 5 times as long as the width).
The perimeter is adding the 4 sides.
x + x + 5x + 5x = 70
Combine the like terms:
12x = 70
Divide both sides by 12:
x = 70/12
x = 5.83
The width = 5.83 cm.
The length = 5 x 5.83 = 29.15
Now round each length to the nearest tenth:
5.8 and 29.2 cm.
The answer is d.

Complement means the other angle that will sum up to 90°
So:
x + 2x = 90°
3x = 90
x = 30°
So, it is 30° and 30 * 2°, or 60°
