The length of a rectangle is 2 centimeters longer than its width. The perimeter is 16 centimeters.

Length of rectangle = L

Width of the rectangle = W

The length of a rectangle is 2 centimeters longer than its width.

So L = W + 2

Perimeter of rectangle = 2* length + 2* width

= 2* (W+2) + 2* W = 2W + 4 + 2W = 4W + 4

Given perimeter = 16cm

16 = 4W + 4

Subtract 4 on both sides

12 = 4W

Divide by 4 on both sides

3 = W

So width of the rectangle = 3 cm

Length = W + 2 = 3+2 = 5 cm

Zielflug [23.3K]
In order to answer the question, you need to know the area of a circle.
Area = pi * r^2
Area = 3.14 * (100/2) ^ 2
Area = 3.14 * 50^2
Area = 7850 mils^2 = 0.00785 in^2

Line segment KL is tangent to circle J at point K.
Shalnov [3]

we know that

if the line segment KL is tangent to circle J at point K

then

KL is perpendicular to KJ

the triangle KJL is a right triangle

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

LJ^{2} =KL^{2}+KJ^{2}

we have

KL=24\ units\\KJ=r\ units\\JL=(16+r)\ units

substitute the values

(16+r)^{2} =24^{2}+r^{2}\\256+32r+ r^{2}=576+ r^{2} \\32r=576-256 \\r= 320/32\\r=10\ units

therefore

<u>the answer is the option B</u>

10\ units
