Answer:

Square: 12 unites

triangle shorter side: 10 units

triangle longer sides: 19 units, 19 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

First, we make the equations to find the perimeters of each shape by adding all the sides

Square: 4x + 4x + (3x+ 3) + (3x + 3)

Triangle: (7x - 2) + (7x - 2) + (2x + 4)

Since the perimeters are equal we can show that

4x + 4x + (3x+ 3) + (3x + 3) = (7x - 2) + (7x - 2) + (2x + 4)

Now we can solve for x.

Combine like terms

14x + 6 = 16x

Subtract 14x from both sides

6 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2

3 = x

Now we know what x is we can put that into the sides of the shapes

Square

4(x)

Put in x

4(3) = 12

The Square is 12 units

Triangle Short Side

2x + 4

Put in x

2(3) + 4

6 + 4

10

The shorter side of the triangle is 10 units

Triangle Longer Side

7x - 2

Put in x

7(3) - 2

21 - 2

19

The longer sides are 19 units

Hope This Helps!

Answer:

<em>Square= 12 units</em>

<em>Triangle long sides= 19 units</em>

<em>Triamgle short side= 10 units</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>It is a square, so all sides are the same.  That means 3x+3 equals 4x.  What number can be subsituted into x to equal 4?  If x is 3, then 3x+3 would be 3(3)+3.  It equals 12.  4 times 3 is also 12.  It works!  That also means the square's side is 12 units.</em>

<em>Square= 12 units</em>

<em />

<u><em>So, x=3</em></u>

<em />

<em>The triangle's longer sides are 7x-2.  Subsitute x in, which is 3, and you get 7(3)-2.  It equals 19.  The two longer sides of the triangle are the same length, so both are 19 units.</em>

<em>Triangle long sides= 19 units</em>

<em />

<em>The triangles shorter side is 2x+4.  Subsitute 3 in for x and you get 2(3)+4.  It equals 10, so the shorter side is 10 units.</em>

<em>Triangle short side= 10 units</em>

The perimeter of a rectangle is 70 cm. The ratio of length to width is 2:5. Find the length and width of the rectangle.
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

length = 10 cm; width = 25 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the length 2x and the width 5x. Since perimeter can be calculated by multiplying the sum of the length and width by 2 we can write:

2 * (2x + 5x) = 70

2 * (7x) = 70

7x = 35

x = 5 which means the length is 2 * 5 = 10 and the width is 5 * 5 = 25.

at a class pizza party each pizza ordered had 2/8 of the pizza left over after the party. In all, 1 1/2 pizzas were left over. H
tatuchka [14]
Simplify 2/8
2/8=1/4

1/4 of all pizzas=1 and 1/2 pizza
convert to improper
1 and 1/2=1+1/2=2/2+1/2=3/2
1/4 of all pizzas=3/2 pizza
times both sides by 4/1
4/4 of all pizzas=12/2 pizza
all pizzas=6pizza

While sailing, Jacob is 150 feet from a lighthouse. The angle of elevation from his feet on the boat (at sea level) to the top o
Vlada [557]

Answer:

The height of the lighthouse is approximately 166.6 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the lighthouse be represented by s, then;

Tan 48° = (opposite) ÷ (adjacent)

Tan 48° = s ÷ 150

⇒ s = 150 × Tan 48°

      = 150 × 1.1106

     = 166.59

s ≅ 166.6 feet

Therefore, the height of the lighthouse is approximately 166.6 feet.

2. Janine walks on a circular track whose radius is 60 meters. If she walks a total of 100 meters, which of the
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

0.53πrad

Explanations:

Given the radius of the circular track = 60metres

If she walks a total of 100 meters, the length of the arc of the circle = 100metres

To calculate the radian angle she rotates about the center of the track, we will use the formula for calculating the length of an arc

L = θ/360° × 2πr

100 = θ/360× 2π(60)

36000 = 120π × θ

36000 = 376.8θ

θ = 36000/376.8

θ = 95.5°

Since 180° = πrad

95.5° = x

x = 95.5π/180

x = 0.53π rad
