Answer:

P =  8.5 x + 3  ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the perimeter, we use the formula

P =2(l+w) where l is the length and w is the width

P =2 (1.25x+3 + 3x-1.5)

Combine like terms

P = 2( 4.25x +1.5)

Distribute the 2

P =  8.5 x + 3  ft

1. Derive the half-angle formulas from the double
lilavasa [31]

1) cos (θ / 2) = √[(1 + cos θ) / 2], sin (θ / 2) = √[(1 - cos θ) / 2], tan (θ / 2) = √[(1 - cos θ) / (1 + cos θ)]

2) (x, y) → (r · cos θ, r · sin θ), where r = √(x² + y²).

3) The point (x, y) = (2, 3) is equivalent to the point (r, θ) = (√13, 56.309°). The point (r, θ) = (4, 30°) is equivalent to the point (x, y) = (2√3, 2).

4) The <em>linear</em> function y = 5 · x - 8 is equivalent to the function r = - 8 / (sin θ - 5 · cos θ).

<h3>How to apply trigonometry on deriving formulas and transforming points</h3>

1) The following <em>trigonometric</em> formulae are used to derive the <em>half-angle</em> formulas:

sin² θ / 2 + cos² θ / 2 = 1                      (1)

cos θ = cos² (θ / 2) - sin² (θ / 2)           (2)

First, we derive the formula for the sine of a <em>half</em> angle:

cos θ = 2 · cos² (θ / 2) - 1

cos² (θ / 2) = (1 + cos θ) / 2

cos (θ / 2) = √[(1 + cos θ) / 2]

Second, we derive the formula for the cosine of a <em>half</em> angle:

cos θ = 1 - 2 · sin² (θ / 2)

2 · sin² (θ / 2) = 1 - cos θ

sin² (θ / 2) = (1 - cos θ) / 2

sin (θ / 2) = √[(1 - cos θ) / 2]

Third, we derive the formula for the tangent of a <em>half</em> angle:

tan (θ / 2) = sin (θ / 2) / cos (θ / 2)

tan (θ / 2) = √[(1 - cos θ) / (1 + cos θ)]

2) The formulae for the conversion of coordinates in <em>rectangular</em> form to <em>polar</em> form are obtained by <em>trigonometric</em> functions:

(x, y) → (r · cos θ, r · sin θ), where r = √(x² + y²).

3) Let be the point (x, y) = (2, 3), the coordinates in <em>polar</em> form are:

r = √(2² + 3²)

r = √13

θ = atan(3 / 2)

θ ≈ 56.309°

The point (x, y) = (2, 3) is equivalent to the point (r, θ) = (√13, 56.309°).

Let be the point (r, θ) = (4, 30°), the coordinates in <em>rectangular</em> form are:

(x, y) = (4 · cos 30°, 4 · sin 30°)

(x, y) = (2√3, 2)

The point (r, θ) = (4, 30°) is equivalent to the point (x, y) = (2√3, 2).

4) Let be the <em>linear</em> function y = 5 · x - 8, we proceed to use the following <em>substitution</em> formulas: x = r · cos θ, y = r · sin θ

r · sin θ = 5 · r · cos θ - 8

r · sin θ - 5 · r · cos θ = - 8

r · (sin θ - 5 · cos θ) = - 8

r = - 8 / (sin θ - 5 · cos θ)

The <em>linear</em> function y = 5 · x - 8 is equivalent to the function r = - 8 / (sin θ - 5 · cos θ).

Ill give brainliest<br> Triangle Sum Theorem CLASSWORK
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

8x + 32 + 116 = 180 \\ 8x + 148 = 180 \\ 8x = 180 - 148 \\ 8x =32  \\  \boxed{x = 4}

<h3>4 is the right answer.</h3>

(7x + 5) + 52 + 67 = 180 \\ 7x + 124 = 180 \\ 7x = 56 \\  \boxed{x = 8}

<h3>8 is the right answer.</h3>
