1 answer:
Angle QRT is an exterior angle to the triangle. The rule is that the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of its remote interior angles. Those remote interior angles are angle RTS and angle TSR. So our equation is 
. We can remove the parenthesis and simplify by combining like terms to get 9x = 5x + 9 + x and 9x = 6x + 9 and 3x = 9. That means that x = 3.

Step-by-step explanation:
Given the width is of the length, then
y - 4 = (2y + 6)
Multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction
3y - 12 = 2y + 6 ( subtract 2y from both sides )
y - 12 = 6 ( add 12 to both sides )
y = 18
Thus
length = 2y + 6 = 2(18) + 6 = 36 + 6 = 42 in
width = y - 4 = 18 - 4 = 14 in
