Here,

Perimeter (P)=86 feet

Length (l)=25 feet

Let, width(b)= x feet

Then,

Perimeter= 2(l+b)

86=2(25+x)

43=25+x

x=18

Hence, required width is 18 feet...

Number 1 and number 3 are the same because if you are purchasing three tires that is 75% off the tires you need and one of them you get free. the free one becomes the overall discount of 25% off. number 3 is the same, the one quarter represents 25% off of the purchase.

A conjecture and the flowchart proof used to prove the conjecture are shown.Drag an expression or phrase to each box to complete

Mice21 [21]

Solution: The solution is shown is below figure.

Explanation:

From the given information JKLM is a parallelogram and $\underset{LN}{\rightarrow}$ bisects $\angle KLP$ . So Blank 1 is filled by Given and blank 2 is filled by $\underset{LN}{\rightarrow}$ bisects $\angle KLP$ .

Parallelogram is a quadrilateral whose opposite sides are equal or parallel. Since it is given that JKLM is a parallelogram, therefore the side JM is parallel to the side KL. So blank 3 filled by Definition of parallelogram.

If a line bisects an angle it is means it divides the angle in two equal parts. Since $\underset{LN}{\rightarrow}$ bisects $\angle KLP$ , therefore $\angle 2\cong \angle 3$ . Hence the blank 4 is filled by Definition of bisect.

The transitive property of congruence states that if $\angle 1\cong \angle 2$ and $\angle 2\cong \angle 3$ , then $\angle 1\cong \angle 3$ . Thus, the blank 5 is filled by Transitive Property of Congruence.
