Answer:

21 ft by 28 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To maximize the area, see the attached.

Perimeter will be 4l+3w which is equal to the fencing perimeter, given as 168

4l+3w=168

Making l the subject then

4l=168-3w

l=42-¾w

Area of individual land will be lw and substituting l with l=42-¾w

Then

A=lw=(42-¾w)w=42w-¾w²

A=42w-¾w²

Getting the first derivative of the above with respect to w rhen

42-w6/4=0

w6/4=42

w=42*4/6=28

Since

l=42-¾w=42-¾(28)=21

Therefore, maximum dimensions are 21 for l and 28 for w

A rhombus is cut along the diagonals to make four triangles. Which three statements are correct for any rhombus? 1) All four tri
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

1). All four triangles are right-angled.

3.) All four triangles are congruent.

4) Area of a rhombus = 4 x area of one triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a rhombus is cut into four triangles using diagonals, the three statements that would apply to any rhombus would be that 'all those four triangles would be right-angled,' 'the triangles would be congruent to one another,' and 'area of one triangle * 4 would be equal to the area of the rhombus.'

As we know, the diagonals bisect one another in a rhombus at 90° and the angles opposite to one another are equal. This <u>proves that all four triangles constructed through the diagonals would be ≅ through SSS congruency and perpendicular to one another because the corresponding edges of the congruent triangles are also ≅</u> . Since the rhombus is divided into four equal parts, the area of one triangle into four would be equals to the area of the rhombus. Thus, <u>options 1, 3, and 4</u> are the correct answers.

Step-by-step explanation:

the right answer was the same x and sampe y. it means in their intersection for both f(x) anad g(x)

so the correct answer is f(0) = g(0) and f(-4) = g(-4)
