By the external angle of a triangle theorem

m < ABD = m < BDC + m < BCD

That is  5x + 2 = x^2 - 1 + 4x - 3

x^2  + 4x - 5x - 1 - 3 - 2 = 0

x^2 - x - 6 = 0

(x - 3)(x + 2) = 0

x = 3,  -2

x cannot be -2 because that would make the external angle, 5x-2 negative.

Answer x = 3

A semicircle is cut out of a rectangular paperboard 24in long and 18n wide, as shown below. What is the perimeter of the paperbo
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Perimeter of the paperboard that remains after the semicircle is removed = 94.26 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Watch the attached figure of how the semi circle is cut out of the rectangular paperboard.

Length = 24 in

Width = 18 in

Radius of the semi circle = Half of the width of the paperboard = \frac{18}{2} = 9 in

1) Circumference of the semi circle = π*radius

= 3.14*9

= 28.26 in

2) Perimeter of the paperboard that remains after the semicircle is removed

= Top + Left + Bottom + Right Circumference of the semi circle

= 24 + 18 + 24 + 28.26

= 94.26 in
