Answer:
BAC=15
Step-by-step explanation:
angle BOA= 180-30= 150
triangle BAO is
isosceles because it has two equal sides, radii of a circumference so the angles ABO=BAO=(180-150)/2=15
Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
This is one of those questions that can throw you. The problem is that do you include the original rectangle or not. The way it is written it sounds like you shouldn't
However if you don't the question gives you 2 complex answers. (answers with the sqrt( - 1) in them.
Solution
Let the width = x
Let the length = x + 5
Area of the rectangle: L * w = x * (x + 5)
Area of the smaller squares (there are 2)
Area = 2*s^2
x = s
Area = 2 * x^2
Area of the larger squares = 2 * (x+5)^2
Total Area
x*(x + 5) + 2x^2 + 2(x + 5)^2 = 120 Expand
x^2 + 5x + 2x^2 + 2(x^2 + 10x + 25) = 120 Remove the brackets
x^2 + 5x + 2x^2 + 2x^2 + 20x + 50 = 120 collect the like terms on the left
5x^2 + 25x + 50 = 120 Subtract 120 from both sides.
5x^2 + 25x - 70 = 0 Divide through by 5
x^2 + 5x - 14 = 0 Factor
(x + 7)(x - 2) = 0 x + 7 has no meaning
x - 2 = 0
x = 2
Perimeter
P = 2*w + 2*L
w = 2
L = 2 + 5
L = 7
P = 2*2 + 2 * 7
P = 4 + 14
P = 18
1 yard is 3 feet
1 foot is 12 inches
Convert everything into inches:
9 x 12 = 108 in.
6 x 3 = 18 ft.
18 x 12 = 216
Add the inches together:
108 + 216 = 324 in
Multiply the inches by 2:
324 x 2 = 648 in
The answer is 648 inches.
