Answer:
66 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter is the sum of the measures of <em>all</em> of the sides. There are two side measures that are missing from the diagram.
The missing horizontal measure is ...
17 m - 8 m = 9 m
The missing vertical measure is ...
16m -7 m = 9 m.
If you add these to the sum you already calculated, you will get the correct answer:
48 m + 9 m + 9 m = 66 m . . . perimeter of the figure
_____
If you're paying attention, you see that the sum of the measures of the two shorter horizontal segments is the same as the measure of the longer horizontal segment. Likewise, the sum of the measurements of the two shorter vertical segments is the same as that of the longer vertical segment.
In other words, the perimeter of this (and any) L-shaped figure is the same as the perimeter of a rectangle having the same horizontal and vertical dimensions as the long sides of the figure.
P = 2(17 m +16 m) = 2(33 m) = 66 m
Answer:
I believe you're supposed to solve for the other missing side. If you know a side (a) and the diagonal or also known as the hypotenuse (c), you will be able to solve for the other side using the Pythagorean theorem.
Step-by-step explanation:
a^2+b^2=c^2 Substitute the values for a and c
24^2+b^2=30^2 Solve for the powers
576+b^2=900 Subtract 576 from both sides
b^2=324 Solve for the root of 324
18=b
You would need 18 inches of material to cover one side of the suitcase.
Answer:
He can fill 3 bags
Step-by-step explanation:
You would first make them have a common denominator so you would have 2/8 instead of 1/4 then you would do 6/8 divided by 2/8 to get 3
1/4 = 2/8
6/8 divided by 2/8 = 3
