Perimeter of quadrilateral ANCM = AN+NC+CM+MA

CM=AM = x in
Therefore, AN=NC = x in
In other words, all sides of the new quadrilateral are equal.

Perimeter (P) = 4x in

Now, Cos 45 = (x-6)/x =>0.7041 = (x-6)/x => 0.7041x=x-6 =>x= 6/(1-0.70741)
x= 20.5 in

Therefore, P=4*20.5 = 82 in

|6m|=42 please help me with absolute value
ANTONII [103]
Since there is nothing on the left side of the equation besides the absolute value, you have to take 6m out of the absolute value and create 2 separate equations. These 2 equation will be 6m = 42 and 6m = -42.

You solve the equations normally:
6m = 42     6m = -42     (inverse to get m by itself, do on both sides)
/6      /6      /6       /6

  m = 7        m = -7


The answer is a solution set:
[7, -7]
