Perimeter of a rectangle = 2L + 2W

Perimeter = 39
W = 8.5

we plug those into the perimeter equation and get
2L + 2(8.5) = 39

simplify
2L + 17 = 39

subtract 17 from both sides
2L = 22

divide both sides by 2
L = 11

therefore the length of the sheet of paper is 11 in.

Quadrilateral WXYZ has the coordinates W(b, b), X(4b, b), Y(3b, 0), and Z(0, 0).

AnnZ [28]

The length of side WX in Quadrilateral WXYZ is 3b units.

<h3>Coordinate plane</h3>

The distance between two points A(x₁, y₁) and B(x₂, y₂) on the coordinate plane is given by:

$AB=\sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2+(x_2-x_1)^2}$

Given the coordinates W(b, b), X(4b, b), Y(3b, 0), and Z(0, 0). The length of WX is:

$WX=\sqrt{(b-b)^2+(4b-b)^2}=3b$

The length of side WX in Quadrilateral WXYZ is 3b units.
