Find out what the lowest number is that each of the numbers on the bottom of the fractions can divide into evenly.
Answer:
180, 180, 148, 180, 148
Step-by-step explanation:
The two rules in play here are ...
- the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°
- the angles of a linear pair are supplementary (they total 180°)
__
The first of these rules answers the first two questions:
- interior angles total 180°
- angles 1, 3, 4 total 180°
We can subtract the measure of angle 1 from both sides of the previous equation to find the sum of the remaining two angles.
- angles 3 and 4 total 148°
The second rule answers the next question:
- angles 1 and 2 total 180°
As before, subtracting the value of angle 1 from both sides of the equation gives ...

<em>Additional comment</em>
Of course, the subtraction property of equality comes into play, also. For some unknown, X, you have (in both cases) ...
X + 32° = 180°
X +32° -32° = 180° -32° . . . . . . subtraction property of equality
X = 148° . . . . . . . . simplify
In the first case, X is the sum of angles 3 and 4. In the second case, X is angle 2 only.

Answer:
The area of the rectangle = 50 cm^2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the shortest side of the rectangle be x cm.
Perimeter of the rectangle is:
2x + 2(x + 5).
Perimeter of the triangle = 3 * 2x.
As they have the same perimeter:
2x + 2(x + 5) = 3*2x
2x + 2x + 10 = 6x
6x - 2x - 2x = 10
2x = 10
x = 5 cm.
So the area of the rectangle = x(x + 5)
= 5 * 10
= 50 cm^2.
