Let's assume

length of rectangle is L

width of rectangle is W

the width of a rectangle is 3 meters more than one-fourth its length

so,

W=3+\frac{1}{4} L

the perimeter is 10 meters more than twice its length

we know that

perimeter =2(L+W)

so, we get

2(L+W)=10+2L

now, we can simplify it

2L+2W=10+2L

subtract both sides by 2L

2L+2W-2L=10+2L-2L

2W=10

W=5

now, we can find L

5=3+\frac{1}{4} L

subtract both sides 3

5-3=3-3+\frac{1}{4} L

2=\frac{1}{4} L

multiply both sides by 4

4*2=4*\frac{1}{4} L

L=8

so,

length of rectangle is 8 meter

width of rectangle is 5 meter ............Answer

A flagpole is 10 feet tall. It’s shadow is 12 feet long how far is it from the top of the flagpole to the end of its shadow?
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

The shadow is 11 Ft. away from the pole base.

Step-by-step explanation:

I just usually do this trick in situations like these where if <em>x</em> equals 1, and <em>y</em> equals 2, then <em>z </em>is gonna be 3. 2 goes after 1, and 3 goes after 2. This trick can work in other counting-up situations like this, as long as the number go up, and are right next to each other.

A number subtracted from 11 is the quotient of -20 and -2. Find the number.
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

-20 divided by -2 is the same as 20 divided by 2, which is 10. 11-10=1 so the answer is 1.

Congruent triangles &amp; proofs need answers to all the ones i got wrong. thank u!
notka56 [123]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

13. Since, it is given that we have to prove ΔGDH≅ΔFEH by HL rule, thus From ΔGDH, ∠GDH=90° and GH is the hypotenuse and from ΔFEH, ∠HEF=90° and HF is the hypotenuse, thus in ΔGDH and ΔFEH,

∠GDH≅∠HEF=90°

GH≅FH,

Thus by HL the given triangles are congruent.

Option A is correct.

14. From the figure, it can be seen that both triangles have a right angle congruent and hypotenuse congruent, thus by HL rule, triangle scan be prove congruent.

Option A is correct.

15. It is given that BI is parallel to RD, thus using the alternate interior angle property, ∠B≅∠R.

Option C is correct.

16. It is given that BI is parallel to RD, and ∠BSI and ∠RSD form the vertically opposite angles, thus ∠BSI≅∠RSD by vertical angles are congruent.

Option A is correct.

17. Since Δ ABC is an isosceles triangle, thus two sides of the triangle are equal, therefore ∠A=∠B=3x+5, using the angle sum property in ΔABC, we have

3x+5+2x+3x+5=180°

⇒8x+10=180

⇒8x=170

⇒x=21.25

Thus, ∠B=3x+5=3(21.25)+5=63.75+5=68.75°

18. From ΔJKL and ΔDEF, we have

∠K=∠E (given)

∠L=∠F(given)

JL=DF

Thus, By AAS rule ΔJKL ≅ ΔDEF

As corresponding angles and corresponding sides are equal in these two triangles as compared to the other triangles.
