The width of rectangle is 2\frac{1}{4}\ cm and length is 5\frac{5}{12}\ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Width of rectangle = w

Length of rectangle = w+3\frac{1}{6}=w+\frac{19}{6}

Perimeter of rectangle = 15\frac{1}{3}=\frac{46}{3}\ cm

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(Length + Width)

2(w+\frac{19}{6}+w)=\frac{46}{3}\\2(2w+\frac{19}{6})=\frac{46}{3}\\4w+\frac{19}{3}=\frac{46}{3}

Subtracting \frac{19}{3} from both sides

4w+\frac{19}{3}-\frac{19}{3}=\frac{46}{3}-\frac{19}{3}\\4w=\frac{46-19}{3}\\4w=\frac{27}{3}\\4w=9

Dividing both sides by 4

\frac{4w}{4}=\frac{9}{4}\\w=\frac{9}{4}

Therefore,

Width of rectangle = w = \frac{9}{4}=2\frac{1}{4} cm

Length of rectangle = w+\frac{19}{6}=\frac{9}{4}+\frac{19}{6}=\frac{27+38}{12}=\frac{65}{12}=5\frac{5}{12}\ cm

The width of rectangle is 2\frac{1}{4}\ cm and length is 5\frac{5}{12}\ cm

Besides the 90° angle measure, what are the other two angle measures of a right triangle with side lengths 5, 12, and 13? Round
TEA [102]
In the right triangle, the longest side is the hypotenuse.
Let α be the angle opposite to the side with a length of 12 units, <span>then according to the Law of sines:

</span>\frac{13}{sin90^o}= \frac{12}{sin \alpha }   \ \ \to \ \ sin \alpha = \frac{12 \cdot sin90^o}{13}=  \frac{12*1}{13}  \approx 0.923 \ \ \to \ m\angle  \alpha \approx 67^o

In a triangle, the three interior angles always add to 180° ⇒

third angle = 180 - 90 - 67 = 23°

Answer:
67° and 23°  (to the nearest degree).

A scale on a map shows that 2.52.52, point, 5 centimeters represents 151515 kilometers.
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

  105 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Written as a proportion, the ratio of km to cm will be the same for both distances:

  (x km)/(17.5 cm) = (15 km)/(2.5 cm)

  x km = (15 km)(17.5/2.5) = 105 km

105 actual kilometers are represented by 17.5 cm on the map.

Andy is hanging wallpaper in his kitchen. He is able to cover of the walls in the room using 6 rolls of wallpaper. What is the n
Alchen [17]

Answer: Andy covers all the walls of his kitchen using 6 rolls of a wallpaper.

To Find:

Number of rolls used per wall.

Solution:

Since, we know that the shape of a kitchen is a cuboid.

And a cuboid has total 6 faces, with 4 walls, one roof and one floor.

So, total number of walls in Andy's kitchen = 4

Now, it is given that he uses 6 rolls of wallpaper to cover 4 walls completely.

In order to find the number of rolls used per wall, we'll have to divide the total number of rolls used with the total number of walls.

Number of rolls used per wall =

                                                 So, 1.5 rolls are used to cover one wall.
