A square 20 cm long and a rectangle 24 cm long have the same perimeter. Find the area of the rectangle.

1 answer:

4 0

20 * 4 = 80 = perimeter of the square 24*2 = 48, the length of two sides of the rectangle. Deducting from 80 we are left with 32 and dividing by 2 we know the rectangle is 24 x 16 Area = L * W, so you can calculate the area of the rectangle.

ABC is isosceles with AB=AC=8 units and BC=6 units. D and E are midpoints of AB and BC respectively. Calculate the length of DE?

Allushta [10]

The triangle is drawn and is shown in the image attached with.

We get two similar triangles. Triangle ABC and Triangle ADE. Since the triangles are similar the ratio of their corresponding sides will be the same.

D and E are the midpoints of AB and BC, therefore, AD and AE are both 4 units in length. Using the property of similar triangles, we can say:

AD : DE= AB : BC
AD = 4 units
AB = 8 units
BC = 6 units
DE = unknown = x units

So,

$4 :x = 8 : 6 \\ \\ 
 \frac{4}{x} = \frac{8}{6} \\ \\ 
x=4* \frac{6}{8}=3 
$

Therefore, the length of DE will be 3 units

1. Given the points (-2,4) and (4, -2), find the midpoint between these points.

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

(1,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

M=(x1+x2 / 2 , y1+y2 / 2)

M=(-2+4 / 2 , 4+ -2 / 2)

M=(2 / 2 , 2 / 2)

M=(1,1)

1/2 of 2/3 = 1/2 of ____ third(s) =____third(s)

adoni [48]

I'll write the equation again with the blanks filled in.

1/2 of 2/3 = 1/2 of two thirds = one third

2/3 is read as two thirds.

Half of 2/3 is 1/3, because 1/3+1/3=2/3

Hope this helps!
