The current area is 15 x 9 = 135 square feet.
He wants to increase both the length and width by X:
Set up an equation:
(15 +x) * (9 +x) = 135 * 2
Simplify :
x^2 + 24x + 135 = 270
Subtract 270 from both sides:
x^2 + 24x - 135 = 0
Use the quadratic formula to solve for x:
-24 +/- √(24^2 - 4(1*-135) / 2*1
x = 4.7 or -28.7
The answer has to be a positive value, so x = 4.7 feet.

Answer:
angle DFG = 49 degrees
angle JKL = 41 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
When angles are complementary with each other, it means that if you add both of the angles up, it adds up to 90 degrees.
In this question, you would have to add up angle DFG and angle JKL and find the x that makes the equation equal to 90 degrees.
angle DFG = x + 5
angle JKL = x - 3
(x + 5) + (x - 3) = 90
2x + 2 = 90
2x = 90 - 2
2x = 88
x = 44
But since we have to find out the angle measures, we have to the "x = 44" with the x's in the DFG and JKL angles.
DFG = (44) + 5 = 49
JKL = (44) - 3 = 41
3420°
explanation:
the equation of the sum of interior angles are (n-2)x180
polygon above has 21 sides so you sub n as 21 and plug the equation in the calculator
