Hello,

tg( \frac{a}{2} )=\pm \sqrt{ \dfrac{1-cos(a)}{1+cos(a)} } \\
=\pm \sqrt{ \dfrac{ \dfrac{2}{3} }{ \dfrac{4}{3} } } =\pm \sqrt{ \dfrac{1}{2} } =\pm \dfrac{ \sqrt{2} }{2} \\

+\ if\  \dfrac{a}{2}\  in\ 1\ quadrant\ (or \ 3)}\\

-\ if\  \dfrac{a}{2}\  in\ 2\ quadrant\ (or \ 4)}\\

A rectangle has an area of 96 cm2 The length of the rectangle is 4 cm longer than the width. Work out the length and width of th
Svetach [21]
Area of a rectangle: 2(L+W)
length: 4+W

Area: 2(4+W) + 2W = 96
8+2W+2W = 96
8+4W = 96
4W = 88
W= 22cm

Calculate for length: 2L + 2(22) = 96
2L + 44 = 96
2L = 52
L = 26cm

• The length is 26cm and width is 22 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles  is 360

x + x+ 1/2x + 1/2x = 360

Combine like terms

3x = 360

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 =360/3

x =120

The 4 angles are 120, 120,60,60

From least to greatest

60,60,120,120
