Answer: Analytic geometry
See the attached picture to better understand the problem
we know that
in rectangle ABCD
AB=CD
and
AD=BC
therefore
the triangle ACD and triangle ABC are congruent
so
BD=AC
BD=8 units
the answer part a) isBD= 8 unitsPart b) Find angle CBD
we know that
∠ABD+∠CBD=90°---------> by complementary angles
so
∠CBD=90-∠ABD-----> 90-67----> 23°
∠CBD=23°
the answer Part b) is∠CBD=23 degrees
Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Sides of the garden</u>
<u>New dimensions of the garden</u>
<u>1. The area of the new garden</u>
- (16 + 2x)(8 + x) =
- 2x^2 + 32x + 128
<u>2. The difference in area </u>
- 2x^2 + 32x + 128 - 16*8 =
- 2x^2 + 32x
<u>3. x= 2 effect on the area</u>
- 2*2^2 + 32*2 =
- 8 + 64 =
- 72 ft²
<u>4. Area difference = 160</u>
- 2x^2 + 32x = 160
- x^2 + 16x - 80 = 0
- Solving we get positive root of 4 ft
<u>5. Area difference = 4 times</u>
- 2x^2 + 32x = 128*3
- 2x^2 + 32x - 384 = 0
- x^2 + 16x - 192= 0
- Solving we get positive root of 8 ft
Okay. So first you subtract 2x from each side. That will give you 4y= -2x+18 (you want to get y by itself). Then you divide both sides by 4. It should equal> y= 1/2x +9/2
