Answer:

<h2>Length = 14</h2><h2>Width =7</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let \:the\:length\:be \:x\\Perimeter = 42 cm\\Width = x -7\\\\P = 2(l+b)\\\\42 = 2(x+(x-7))\\\\42 = 2(x +x-7)\\42 = 2(2x-7)\\42 = 4x -14\\Collect\:like\:terms\\\\42+14=4x\\56 = 4x\\\\Divide \:both\:sides\:of\:the\:equation\:by \:4\\\frac{56}{4} = \frac{4x}{4} \\\\14 =x\\Length = 14\\Width = x-7\\Width = 14-7\\\\Width = 7

Answer: length = 14cm width= 7cm, Area = 98cm^2

Explanation:

First let’s find the semi perimeter of the rectangle:

Semi. = P/2
Semi. = 42/2
Semi. = 21

Find length:

L + L - 7 = 21 (L - 7 is the width)
2L - 7 = 21
2L = 28
L = 28/2
L = 14

Find width:

Width is L - 7

But L is 14

W = 14 - 7
W = 7

Find area:

A = LW
A = 14 x 7
A = 98cm^2

A triangle has sides of lengths 13, 21, and 24. is it a right triangle? explain
mel-nik [20]
<span>No, it doesn't. To find out if it's a right angled triangle, we use Pythagorean triple. It states that the square of the hypotenuse (the longest side) is equal to the sum of the squares of the opposite and adjacent sides. Obviously, the longest side, which is our hypotenuse is 24. So we want to find out whether the square of our hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides i. e 13 and 21. 24^ 2 = 576 ; 13^2 = 169 ; 21^2 = 441; So is 576 = 169 + 441. An emphatic No: hence the triangle isn't right angled since it doesn't satisfy pythagorean triple.. A^2 is not equal to B^2 + C^2 where a is the hypotenuse and b and c the opposite and adjacent sides.</span>
