Answer:

The general plan is to find BM and from that CM. You need 2 equations to do that.

Step One

Set up the two equations.

(7 - BM)^2 + CM^2 = (4*sqrt(2) ) ^ 2 = 32

BM^2 + CM^2 = 5^2 = 25

Step Two

Subtract the two equations.

(7 - BM)^2 + CM^2  = 32

BM^2 + CM^2         = 25

(7 - BM)^2 - BM^2 = 7               (3)

Step three

Expand the left side of the new equation labeled (3)

49 - 14BM + BM^2 - BM^2 = 7    

Step 4

Simplify And Solve

49 - 14BM = 7              Subtract 49 from both sides.

-49 - 14BM = 7 - 49

- 14BM = - 42              Divide by - 14

BM = -42 / - 14

BM = 3

Step  Five

Find CM

CM^2 + BM^2 = 5^2

CM^2 + 3^2 = 5^2        Subtract 3^2 from both sides.

CM^2 = 25 - 9            

CM^2 = 16                     Take the square root of both sides.        

sqrt(CM^2) = sqrt(16)

CM = 4    < Answer

Draw at least six different sized rectangles that have an area of 64 square units
olga_2 [115]

Let

x------> the length of the rectangle

y------> the width of the rectangle

we know that

The area of a rectangle is equal to

A=x*y

A=64\ units^{2}

so

x*y=64 --------> equation 1

let's assume different values of x to get the different values of y

<u>case 1)</u> For x=64 units

substitute in the equation 1

x*y=64

y=64/x

y=64/64

y=1\ units      

the dimensions of the rectangle are 64 units x 1 unit

see the draw in the attached figure N 1

<u>case 2)</u> For x=32 units

substitute in the equation 1

x*y=64

y=64/x

y=64/32

y=2\ units

the dimensions of the rectangle are 32 units x 2 units

see the draw in the attached figure N 2

<u>case 3)</u> For x=16 units  

substitute in the equation 1

x*y=64

y=64/x

y=64/16

y=4\ units

the dimensions of the rectangle are 16 units x 4 units

see the draw in the attached figure N 3

<u>case 4)</u> For x=30 units

substitute in the equation 1

x*y=64      

y=64/x

y=64/30

y=\frac{32}{15} =2\frac{2}{15} \ units

the dimensions of the rectangle are 30 units x 2 (2/15) units

see the draw in the attached figure N 4

<u>case 5)</u> For x=40 units

substitute in the equation 1

x*y=64    

y=64/x

y=64/40

y=1.60\ units

the dimensions of the rectangle are 40 units x 1.60 units

see the draw in the attached figure N 5

<u>case 6)</u> For x=60 units

substitute in the equation 1

x*y=64    

y=64/x

y=64/60

y=\frac{16}{15} =1\frac{1}{15} \ units

the dimensions of the rectangle are 60 units x 1 (1/15) units

see the draw in the attached figure N 6
