Is this a glitch or I don’t see a question? I only see dots “……”
Assume that the length of the rectangle is "l" and that the width is "w".
We are given that:
(1) The length is one more than twice the base. This means that:
l = 2w + 1 .......> equation I
(2) The perimeter is 92 cm. This means that:
92 = 2(l+w) ...........> equation II
Substitute with equation I in equation II to get the width as follows:
92 = 2(l+w)
92 = 2(2w+1+w)
92/2 = 3w + 1
46 = 3w + 1
3w = 46-1 = 45
w = 45/3
w = 15
Substitute with w in equation I to get the length as follows:
l = 2w + 1
l = 2(15) + 1
l = 30 + 1 = 31
Based on the above calculations:
length of base = 31 cm
width of base = 15 cm
Remark
You must use the sin law to find this.
Multiply through by 12
12 * *12
0.5269 = sin(x)
Now you have to use the inverse of the sine function.
Use your calculator for that

= 31.79 degrees. <<<<<< Answer.
There sometimes is a second answer. I don't think there is in this case.
