The Original length of each side of square was 14.25 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a square is given by:

Perimeter = 4 * side

Let x be the original length of each side of square

So

decreasing 2 inch will mean

x-2

Perimeter of square after reducing 2 inches from each side

4(x-2) = 49\\4x-8 = 49\\4x = 49+8\\4x = 57\\\frac{4x}{4} = \frac{57}{4}\\x = 14.25

So,

The Original length of each side of square was 14.25 inches.

  • the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°
  • the measure of third angle = the sum of the interior angles - the sum of two angles

E = 180 - (71 + 71) = 146

∠E = 146°
