Answer:
3a by 4a
Step-by-step explanation:
For dimensions L and W, the area and perimeter are ...
A = LW = 12a^2
P = 2(L+W) = 14a
Using the second equation, we can find L:
L +W = 7a . . . . . divide by 2
L = 7a -W
Substituting into the area formula gives the quadratic ...
(7a -W)(W) = 12a^2
W^2 -7aW +12a^2 = 0 . . . . arrange in standard form
(W -3a)(W -4a) = 0 . . . . . . . factor (find factors of 12 that total 7)
Then we have the two solutions ...
W = 3a, L = 4a
W = 4a, L = 3a
The rectangle dimensions are 3a by 4a.
Answer:
∠y = 62.5°
∠x = 27.5°
Step-by-step explanation:
z is right angle. ∠z = 90°
∠x = ∠y - 35
∠x + ∠y + ∠z = 180 {Angle sum property of triangle}
y - 35 + y + 90 = 180
y + y - 35 + 90 = 180 {Combine like terms}
2y + 55 = 180
2y = 180 -55 {Subtract 55 from both sides}
2y = 125 {Divide both sides by 2}
y = 125 /2
∠y = 62.5°
∠x = 62.5 - 35 = 27.5°
We cannot get further information about the dimensions of the piece since the number of variables is greater than the number of equations.
<h3>What are the dimensions of a rectangular piece of metal?</h3>
By geometry we know that the area of the piece of metal is equal to the product of its length and width, then we must find two <em>real</em> numbers such that:
l · w = 27.75, where l, w > 0.
Unfortunately, we cannot get further information about the dimensions of the piece since the number of variables is greater than the number of equations. We need at least one equation to find an <em>unique</em> solution.
