<span>width = x
</span><span>length = x+5
2x + 2(x+5) = 46
2x + 2x + 10 = 46
4x = 46 - 10
4x = 36
x = 36/4 </span><span>
x = 9 in </span> ← width

I'll try it.
I just went through this twice on scratch paper. The first time was to
see if I could do it, and the second time was because the first result
I got was ridiculous. But I think I got it.
You said <span><u>3sin²(x) = cos²(x)</u>
Use this trig identity: sin²(x) = 1 - cos²(x)
Plug it into the original equation for (x).
3(1 - cos²(x) ) = cos²(x)
Remove parentheses on the left: 3 - 3cos²(x) = cos²(x)
Add 3cos²(x) to each side: 3 = 4cos²(x)
Divide each side by 4 : 3/4 = cos²(x)
Take the square root of each side: <em>cos(x) = (√3) / 2</em> .
There it is ... the cosine of the unknown angle.
Now you just go look it up in a book with a table cosines,
or else pinch it through your computer or your calculator,
or else just remember that you've learned that
cos( <em><u>30°</u></em> ) = </span><span><span>(√3) / 2 </span>.

It. Mean it 2 of 1\2 example 1\2 1\2
Answer:
for 18 x is 6 and for 20 it is 11
Step-by-step explanation:
For 18, since -1+2x and 5+x is the same thing, set up and equation. WE can simplify to -1+x=5 and then we get x=6
For 20, 18 is 11 since 18=-4+2x. If we simplify we get 22=2x then we can use algebra to say that x=11
Hope this helps :)
