The perimeter of a square is the sum of its sides and they
are all equal, so to obtain the length of each of them we divide the perimeter
of the first fence between 4:
P1= 64 feet/4 sides
P1= 16 feet
Then, the length of each side of the second fence will
increase 2 feet at each end, as shown in the figure. We have then that the
perimeter of the second fence is:
P2 = 20 feet x 4 sides
P2 = 80 feet
The sum of the perimeters of both fences is:
PT = P1 + P2
PT = 64 feet + 80 feet
PT = 144 feet
Total cost = 1.17 $ x 144 feet
Total cost = 168.48 $
The total cost of the fences was $ 168.48
Yes, for triangles to similar two angles have to be the same, in this case, they both have 55 and 30 degrees), this makes the third angle the same. Triangles angles add up to 180 degrees and if you subtract 30 and 55 from 180..
180-30=150-55=95
95+30+55=180
8*2=16, 4*4=16, so 16/2 is even and so is 16/8 or 16/4
2y+18=42
2y=24
y=12
Hope this helps!
