In geometry, definitions are formed using known words or terms to describe a new word. There are three words in geometry that are not formally defined. These three undefined terms are point, line and plane.
<span>POINT (an undefined term) </span>
<span>In geometry, a point has no dimension (actual size). Even though we represent a point with a dot, the point has no length, width, or thickness. A point is usually named with a capital letter. In the coordinate plane, a point is named by an ordered pair, (x,y). </span>
<span>LINE (an undefined term) </span>
<span>In geometry, a line has no thickness but its length extends in one dimension and goes on forever in both directions. A line is depicted to be a straight line with two arrowheads indicating that the line extends without end in two directions. A line is named by a single lowercase written letter or by two points on the line with an arrow drawn above them. </span>
<span>PLANE (an undefined term) </span>
<span>In geometry, a plane has no thickness but extends indefinitely in all directions. Planes are usually represented by a shape that looks like a tabletop or wall. Even though the diagram of a plane has edges, you must remember that the plane has no boundaries. A plane is named by a single letter (plane m) or by three non-collinear points (plane ABC). </span>
<span>Undefined terms can be combined to define other terms. Noncollinear points, for example, are points that do not lie on the same line. A line segment is the portion of a line that includes two particular points and all points that lie between them, while a ray is the portion of a line that includes a particular point, called the end point, and all points extending infinitely to one side of the end point. </span>
<span>Defined terms can be combined with each other and with undefined terms to define still more terms. An angle, for example, is a combination of two different rays or line segments that share a single end point. Similarly, a triangle is composed of three noncollinear points and the line segments that lie between them. </span>
<span>Everything else builds on these and adds more information to this base. Those added things include all the theorems and other "defined" terms like parallelogram or acute angle. </span>
P=2(L+W)
A=LW
given
P=62
62=2(L+W)
divide 2
31=L+W
minus W
L=31-W
sub into other one
A=LW
A=(31-W)(W)
228=31W-W^2
times -1
W^2-31W=-228
add 228 both sides
W^2-31W+228=0
factor
what 2 numbers multiply to get 228 and add to get -31
-19 and -12
(W-19)(W-12)=0
set to zero
W-19=0
W=19
W-12=0
W=12
sub back
L=31-W
L=31-12
L=19
or
L=31-19
L=12
the doorway is 12in by 19in
Answer:

hope this helps :)
Answer: c
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
add 1/4 to each side
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2+x=11
We take the coefficient of the x term
1
Then divide it by 2
1/2
Then square it
(1/2) ^2 = 1/4
Add this to both sides of the equation
x^2 + x + 1/4 = 11+1/4
(x+1/2)^2 = 11 1/4
