5 0

Answer:

1.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

(10+2x)(14+2x) = 221

4x² + 48x - 81 = 0

4x² + 54x - 6x - 81 = 0

2x(2x + 27) - 3(2x + 27) = 0

(2x + 27)(2x - 3) = 0

x = -27/2, 3/2

x = 3/2 or 1½ or 1.5 inches

Please someone help me to prove this. ​
morpeh [17]

Answer:  see proof below

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Use the Double Angle Identity: sin 2Ф = 2sinФ · cosФ

Use the Sum/Difference Identities:

sin(α + β) = sinα · cosβ + cosα · sinβ

cos(α - β) = cosα · cosβ + sinα · sinβ

Use the Unit circle to evaluate: sin45 = cos45 = √2/2

Use the Double Angle Identities:   sin2Ф = 2sinФ · cosФ

Use the Pythagorean Identity: cos²Ф + sin²Ф = 1

<u />

<u>Proof LHS → RHS</u>

LHS:                                  2sin(45 + 2A) · cos(45 - 2A)

Sum/Difference: 2 (sin45·cos2A + cos45·sin2A) (cos45·cos2A + sin45·sin2A)

Unit Circle:    2[(√2/2)cos2A + (√2/2)sin2A][(√2/2)cos2A +(√2/2)·sin2A)]  

Expand:        2[(1/2)cos²2A  + cos2A·sin2A + (1/2)sin²2A]

Distribute:              cos²2A   + 2cos2A·sin2A + sin²2A  

Pythagorean Identity:    1 + 2cos2A·sin2A

Double Angle:                1 + sin4A

LHS = RHS:  1 + sin4A = 1 + sin4A   \checkmark
