Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + x + 60 = 180.
first, we add the x's together.
4x + 60 = 180
then we see if they all have a common multiple. in this case, they do. they are all divisible by 4, so we can use that.
x + 15 = 45
then, just subtract 15 from both sides, that way we get the variable by itself.
x = 30
also, it is a right triangle. the top angle (3x) multiplied by 3 is 90. any triangle that has a 90 degree angle is automatically a right triangle.
The simple way of calculating a perimeter is to add all of the sides.
For a rectangle this would equal 2 x length + 2 x width
P = 2(6x + 3) + 2(-2x - 5)
= 12x + 6 - 4x - 10
= 8x - 4
At a higher level both the length and width must be greater than zero (= zero is a trivial rectangle)
6x + 3 > 0
6x > -3
x > -0.5
-2x - 5 > 0
2x + 5 < 0 (multiplying by -1 reverses the inequality)
2x < -5
x < -2.5
This rectangle cannot exist as x cannot be < -2.5 and > -0.5 at the same time!
Answer:
√357
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply all three numbers together and since 357 cannot be simplified it stays as a radical
