Width = W
Length = 12W - 1
Perimeter = 2L + 2W = 37

In the perimeter equation substitute the length equation in for L to get the equation in terms of W
2L + 2W = 37
2(12W - 1) + 2w = 37

Distribute
2(12W - 1) + 2w = 37
24W - 2 + 2w = 37
26W = 39
W = 3/2 = 1.5
Width = 1.5

Lastly, solve for length
L = 12W - 1
L = (12 • 1.5) - 1
L = 18 - 1
L = 17
Length = 17

Find the value of x.
andre [41]
The triangle is an isosceles triangle because of its degrees. A triangle consists of 180 degrees therefore, 180-90-45 simply makes it 45 matching the other side.

So we can assume that side b is also equivalent to side a. Here we use the pythagorean theorem to find x

a^2 + b^2 = c^2
5^2 + 5^2 = c^2
25+25=50

The square root of 50 is 7.1
x= 7.1

Let a and ß be first quadrant angles with cos(a)=
Finger [1]

Since both α and β are in the first quadrant, we know each of cos(α), sin(α), cos(β), and sin(β) are positive. So when we invoke the Pythagorean identity,

sin²(x) + cos²(x) = 1

we always take the positive square root when solving for either sin(x) or cos(x).

Given that cos(α) = √11/7 and sin(β) = √11/4, we find

sin(α) = √(1 - cos²(α)) = √38/7

cos(β) = √(1 - sin²(β)) = √5/4

Now, recall the sum identity for cosine,

cos(x + y) = cos(x) cos(y) - sin(x) sin(y)

It follows that

cos(α + β) = √11/7 × √5/4 - √38/7 × √11/4 = (√55 - √418)/28

What is the least common multiple of 37 and 12
emmasim [6.3K]
<span>To get the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 37 and 12 we need to factor each value first and then we choose all the factors which appear in any column and multiply them: 

<span><span>37:      37</span><span>12:   223 </span><span>LCM:   22337</span></span>The Least Common Multiple (LCM) is:   2 x 2 x 3 x 37 = 444</span><span> </span>
