Perimeter is the sum of the two lengths plus the sum of the two widths.

Divide the perimeter in half and that is the sum of one length and one width.

27/2  = 13.5

The ratio is 2:1, add the ratio: 2 +1 = 3

Divide the sum by 3:

13.5/3 = 1.5

Multiply that the each portion of the ratio:

4.5 x 2 = 9

4.5 x 1 = 4.5

The length is 9 inches

The width is 4.5 inches

VMariaS [17]
I assume you mean:
3x^2 -5xy + 5y^2.

Simply substitute the given values into the equation:

3(-6)^2 - 5(-6)(2) + 5(2)^2

What is the arc measure of \stackrel{\LARGE{\frown}}{AC}
algol [13]

Answer:

72°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the radius(r) of the circle is 10 units and the length of arc ABC is 16π

The length of arc ABC = \frac{\theta}{360}*2\pi r

Where θ is the central angle in degrees.

Since the length of arc ABC is 16π,

16\pi=\frac{\theta}{360}*2\pi r\\16\pi=\frac{\theta}{360}*2\pi *10\\\theta=\frac{16\pi *360}{2 \pi *10} \\\theta=288^0

The angle in a circle = 360°, therefore:

Central angle for arc AB (θ) = 360 - Central angle for arc ABC = 360 - 288 = 72°

Therefore the arc measure of arc AB is 72°
