For this case what we should do is observe the figure.
We note that the side opposite to vertex B is the AC side.
From here, we can see that the length of the AC segment is given by:
AC = 4
Therefore, the measurement on the side opposite to vertex B is equal to 4 units.
Answer:
The length of the side opposite B measures 4 units
It is the answer number 2
Answer:
1) 1.25
Because your increasing and 25% is .25 so you have 100 and 25 percent more
You have the correct steps and final answer. The area of the room is 196 square feet, so each side is sqrt(196) = 14. The perimeter is 14*4 = 56 feet. You'll need 6 boards (each 10 ft long) to get 60 ft total. You'll have 60-56 = 4 ft of board left over. This is assuming that there isn't any other type of waste or mistakes made in cutting.
Nice work on getting the correct steps and final answer.
