Answer: 11x
---------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------
Explanation:
Let L be the length of rectangle B
There are two copies of L (along the top and bottom of the rectangle). The vertical pairs of sides are both 7x each.
For the triangle, we have three sides of 12x since this is an equilateral triangle. All three sides are congruent for any equilateral triangle.
The perimeter of the triangle is
P = s1+s2+s3
P = 12x+12x+12x
P = 36x
The perimeter of the rectangle is
P = 2*L+2*W
P = 2L+2*7x
P = 2L+14x
Since both perimeters are the same, this means
perimeter of triangle = perimeter of rectangle
36x = 2L+14x
36x-14x = 2L+14x-14x
22x = 2L
2L = 22x
2L/2 = 22x/2
L = 11x
So the length of the rectangle, in terms of x, is 11x. This is the final answer.
Note: if we knew the value of x, then we could find the numeric value of the length for the rectangle. But since we don't know x, we leave it as 11x.
Answer:
it should be 12
i think :)
i hope im correct
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply 15 x 3.14. You'll get 47.1. Thats the area
- Slope Formula:
So remember that <u>perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals to each other</u> and <u>parallel lines have the same slope.</u> To find out if they are either parallel or perpendicular, plug the pair of points into the slope formula to find their slopes:
Since these slopes aren't the same nor are they negative reciprocals to each other, <u>the lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular.</u>
