Supplementary angles equal 10 degrees.

Let angle 6 = X

Angle 5 is 24 more than half of angle 6, which can be written as 1/2X +24

So now we have X + 1/2x +24 = 180

Combine the like terms ( X +1/2X = 1.5X)

1.5x + 24 = 180

Subtract 24 from each side:

1.5x = 156

Divide both sides by 1.5:

x = 156 / 1.5

X = 104

Angle 6 = 104 degrees.

Angle 5 = 180 - 104 = 76 degrees

The length of a rectangle is 8 feet more than its width. If the width is increased by 4 feet and the length is decreased by 5 fe

bezimeni [28]

Assign the following variables for the origina3l rectangle:
let w = width let w + 8 = length and the area would be w(w + 8) = w² + 8w

No for the second rectangle:
let (w + 4) = width and (w + 8 - 5) or (w + 3) = length
Area = length x width or (w + 4)(w + 3) = w² + 3w + 4w + 12 using the foil method to multiply to binomials. Simplified Area = w² + 7w + 12

Now our problem says that the two area will be equal to each other, which sets up the following equation:

w² + 8w = w² + 7w + 12 subtract w² from both sides
8w = 7w + 12 subtract 7w from both sides
w = 12 this is the width of our original rectangle
recall w + 8 = length, so length of the original rectangle would be 20
