Answer:

7cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = Length x width

A = 35

w= L - 2

L = w+ 2

Now it becomes

35 = ( w+2) x w

35 = w^2 + 2w

W^2 + 2w - 35 = 0

By Factorization we have

( w + 7)( w-5)

w = 5cm

Since L = w + 2, we have

L = 5 + 2

= 7cm

Use the figure to find the measure of angle 2.

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

∠ 2 = 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

110° and ∠ 1 are corresponding angles and congruent, thus

∠ 1 = 110°

∠ 1 and ∠ 2 are adjacent angles and are supplementary, thus

∠ 2 = 180° - ∠ 1 = 180° - 110° = 70°
