The length is 32 and the width is 1. 32÷2 is 16. 16-15 is 1. 32+32+1+1 is 66
We can see on this graph that the triangle has legs of x and 6 with a hypotenuse of 10 and we can use Pythagoreans theorem to find the unknown side.
Pythagoreans theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2, where a and b are the legs of the triangle and c, is the hypotenuse
x^2+6^2=10^2 Plugin a=x, b=6, and c=10. Now let us solve for x
x^2+36=100 Square each individual term
x^2+=100+36 Subtract 36 from both sides
x^2=64 Combine like terms
sqrt(2)=sqrt(64) Take the square root of both sides
x = 8 Simplify the square root
So our answer is x = 8
The ladder touches the 8 feet mark on the wall.
Ya that's correct u got the right answer
Answer:
278.25 cm2
Step-by-step explanation:
If the width of the rectangle is x (cm), as the length is 8cm longer, so that the length of the rectangle is: x + 8 (cm).
In the attached image, we can see the length of each side. Total length of the sides are 90 cm.
=> (x + x + 8) + x + 8 + (x+8) + (x + x + 8) + x + 8 + (x +8) = 90
=> 8x + 48 = 90
=> 8x = 90 - 48 = 42
=> x =42/8 = 5.25 (cm)
=> The width of the rectangle is 5.25cm
=> The length of the rectangle is: 5.25 + 8 = 13.25 cm
=> The area of one rectangle is: Length x Width = 5.25 x 13.25 = 69.5625 cm2
As the 8-sided shape is made from 4 rectangles, so that:
Area of 8 sided shape = 4 x Area of the rectangle = 4 x 69.5625 = 278.25 cm2
