Given:
trap door = 130 square feet.

1st item: 6ft 5in wide & 8ft 9in long 
⇒ (6ft * 12 in) + 5 in & (8ft *12 in) + 9 in
⇒ 77inches by 105 inches
⇒ 8,085 square inches

2nd item: 13ft 4in wide & 7ft 8in long
⇒ (13ft * 12in)+ 4 in & (7ft *12in) + 8 in
⇒ 160 inches by 92 inches
⇒ 14,720 square inches

3rd item: 5ft 6in wide & 12ft 4in long
⇒ (5 ft * 12in) + 6 in & (12ft * 12in) + 4in
⇒ 66 inches by 148 inches
⇒ 9,768 square inches

130 square feet convert to square inches.
130 sq. ft * 144 sq.in/sq.ft = 18,720 sq. in

18,720 sq. in / 160 inches = 117 inches

Length = 160 inches ; Width = 117 inches
Perimeter = 2(160 + 117)
P = 2(277)
P = 554 inches

Need to find the value of y
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

√55

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the small triangle in the bottom corner shares an angle with the overall triangle.  Also, they are both right triangles.  Therefore, they are similar triangles.

Notice that the large triangle at the top shares an angle with the overall triangle and is also a right triangle.  Therefore it is also similar to the overall triangle and the smaller triangle.

Writing a proportion between the small and large triangles:

y / 11 = 5 / y

y² = 55

y = √55

Write and solve an equation to find the value of x and the missing angle measures
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

85 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

its really easy just make them equal to eachother and then solve

9x + 13 = 11x-3

-11x (subtract because 11x is positive)

-2x +13 = -3

-13 (subtract because 13 is positive)

-2x = -16

divide both sides by -2

x= 8

substitute 8 for the x's and you have your answer
