The area of a rectangle is obtained through the equation,
  
                                  A = L x W 

The width of the yard is 4 ft less than the length and may be expressed as L - 4. Length may be solved through the following steps,
   
                               A = (L)(L-4)   ; 96 = L(L - 4)    ; L = 12 ft

The length and width are 12 ft and 8 ft, respectively. Perimeter may be solved through the equation,
 
                                           P = 2 x (L + W)

Substituting the values of L and W
 
                                           P = 2 x ( 12 ft + 8 ft) = 40 ft

Therefore, the perimeter of the yard is 40 ft.

Question is in the picture. Please help
irakobra [83]

BD = AC Given. BD cuts AC in half. That's what bisectors do.

BD = BD Reflexive property of a line (it is always equal to itself).

<ADB = <ADC = 90o

DB is perpendicular to AC Given.

<ADB + <ADC = 180o The two are supplementary.

Each angle = 90o Perpendicular means that one line meets another at 90o

2x = 180

x = 90o

Since each of the enclosed angles = 90, two have two triangles congruent by SAS <<<< Answer
