Answer:

b 14 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Width of the rectangle = 7 ft

Diagonal length of the rectangle = 16 ft

Let the length of the rectangle = l ft

Then,

\[l^{2}+7^{2}=16^{2}\]

\[=> l^{2}+49=256\]

\[=> l^{2}=207\]

\[=> l=sqrt{207}\]

\[=> l=14.39\]

This can be approximate by 14 ft

Among the given options, option B is the correct one.

Answer: b. 14ft

Step-by-step explanation:

In the rectangle, the opposite sides are equal. The diagonal divides the rectangle into two equal right angle triangles. The diagonal represents the hypotenuse of both right angle triangles. The length and width represents the opposite and adjacent sides of the right angle triangles.

To determine the length, L of the rectangle, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

Therefore,

16² = L² + 7²

256 = L² + 49

L² = 256 - 49 = 207

L = √207

L = 14.38

the closest to the length of this rectangle in feet is

14ft

In triangle NOP p equals 600 inches angle P equals 96° and angle N equals 64° what is the area of triangle NOP to the nearest 10
DochEvi [55]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  55,637.8 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find side n using the Law of Sines:

  n/sin(N) = p/sin(P)

  n = p(sin(N)/sin(P)) = 600·sin(64°)/sin(96°)

  n ≈ 542.246913 . . . . inches

The angle O is ...

  O = 180° -N -P = 180° -64° -96° = 20°

Then the area is ...

  A = 1/2·np·sin(O)

  A = (1/2)(542.246913 in)(600 in)·sin(20°) ≈ 55,637.81008 in²

The area of ∆NOP is about 55,637.8 in².
