Answer:

60 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = length x width

Area is constant at 1440 in^2

For first rectangle: W1 and L1

For second rectangle: W2 and L2

W1 = 32 in

W2 = W1 - 8 in = 24 in

1440 in^2 = L1 x 32 in = L2 x 24 in

L1 = 45 in

L2 = 60 in

AleksAgata [21]
1.No error , he divided by 16 in the 2 sides .
2.no error ,he made sure that 16/16 is one while d/16 remains
3.no error , he square rooted both sides
4.error, as the root gives one positive value and one negative value not only a positive value ,the answer should have been t=+-(d/4)
5.error,he disturbed the whole equation by rooting d only he should have rooted both sides

Someone please help me !!!
alexandr1967 [171]

Because this triangle is a right traingle and has one angel that is 45 degrees, the third angle must be 45 degrees to because 90+45+45=180. With that, km must be the same length as lm. we know lm is 5 so km is 5 too. No we can plug this into the Pythagorean Theorem too get

5^2+5^2=c^2

25+25=c^2

50=c^2

√50=√c^2

√25*2=c

5√2=c

Thats your answer to the length of lk.
