Answer:

225 inches²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be l and width be w

Condition 1

2l+2w=68 (Perimeter=68)--------(i)

Condition 2

l=3w-2 ---------(ii)

Putting equation (ii) in (i)

2(3w-2)+2w=68

6w-4+2w=68

8w-4=68

8w=68+4

8w=72

dividing both sides by 8

w=9 inches

now putting w=9 in (ii)

l=3(9)-2

l=27-2

l=25 inches

Now

Area of rectangle =  l × w

=9 × 25

=225 inches²

What additional info do you need
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

  ∠C ≅ ∠M  or  ∠B ≅ ∠L

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given an angle and its opposite side as being congruent. AAS requires two congruent angles and one side, so you need another set of congruent angles (one in each triangle). It does not matter which they are. The above-listed pairs are appropriate.*

_____

* Since the figure cannot be assumed to be drawn to scale, either of angles B or C could be declared congruent to either of angles L or M. However, it appears that angles B and L are opposite the longest side of the triangle, so it makes good sense to declare that pair congruent. The same congruence statement (ΔBCD≅ΔLMN) would result from declaring angles C and M congruent. So, either declaration will work (matches the last answer choice.)

__

AAS requires two angles and a side. One side is already marked, so we do not need any more information about sides. (The second and third answer choices can be rejected as irrelevant.)
