Answer:

  The rectangle is 10 cm by 18 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance from the center of the rectangle to the longer side. Then the distance to the shorter side is x+4. The short side of the rectangle will have length 2x, and the long side will have length 2(x+4) = 2x+8.

The perimeter is twice the sum of the side lengths, so is ...

  56 = 2(2x +(2x+8)) = 8x +16

  40 = 8x . . . . . . . subtract 16

  40/8 = x = 5 . . . divide by the coefficient of x

The side lengths are 2x=10 and 2x+8 = 18 centimeters.

How should I solve for x and what is x?
algol [13]

Answer:

x =12

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for x

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

16^2 + x^2 = 20^2

256 +x^2 = 400

Subtract 256 from each side

256-256 +x^2 = 400-256

x^2 =144

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) =sqrt(144)

x = 12
