Radda [10]3 years ago

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the following formula: P = 2W + 2L
To solve this formula for W, the goal is to isolate this variable to one side of the equation such that the width of the rectangle (W) can be solved when given its perimeter (P) and length (L).
P = 2W + 2L
subtract 2L from both sides of the equation
P - 2L = 2W + 2L - 2L
P - 2L = 2W
divide both sides of the equation by 2
(P - 2L)/2 = (2W)/2
(P - 2L)/2 = (2/2)W
(P - 2L)/2 = (1)W
(P - 2L)/2 = W
Thus, given that the perimeter (P) of a rectangle is defined by P = 2W + 2L ,
then its width (W) is given by W = (P - 2L)/2

The vertices of a triangle are (-1.3) (-5,3) (-5,7) how would you reflect the triangle in the x-axis and in the y-axis ? Give th
grandymaker [24]
Simple way to see it is to multiply the value opposite of the axis you're flipping it over by -1. For example the point (-5,7) would become (5,7) when reflected over the y-axis, because the point is moving from the left to the right. This means the triangle would be (1,3) (5,3) and (5,7) when reflected over the y-axis. For reflection over the x-axis it would be (-1,-3) (-5,-3) and (-5,-7) because each point is moving down.

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

25 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying Pythagoras' Theorem,

(BD)^2= (CD)^2 + (BC)^2

(BC)^2= 65^2 - 60^2

(BC)^2= 625

BC= √625= 25
