Answer: So, all you have to do is divide in this situation. He starts with a board that is 12 feet long, keep that in mind. If he cuts that into 8 pieces it's like he is dividing. So 12 divided by eight or 12/8 would be 1.5. Your answer is that each piece would be 1.5ft long.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we are given
center =(0,0)
we can compare with
center=(h,k)=(0,0)
so, h=0 and k=0
a=2 and b=5
now, we can use equation of hyperbola formula

now, we can plug values

we can simplify it
and we get equation of hyperbola as

The perimeter is all sides length added together. You can make an equation:5+5+x+x where x is the length.
5+5=10 18-10=8 There is two sides so you do eight divided by two
The length is 4
