Find the dimensions of a rectangle with perimeter 76 m whose area is as large as possible. m (smaller value) m (larger value)

Mathematics

Sladkaya [172]3 years ago

Answer:

19 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2(length + width) ; P = 2(l+w) - - (1)

Area = Length * width ; A = l*w - - - (2)

76 = 2(l+w)

76/2 = l+w

l+w = 38

l = 38 - w

Put l = 38 - w in (1)

A = (38-w)*w

A = 38w - w²

At maximum point:

dA/dw = 0

dA/dw = 38 - 2w

38 - 2w = 0

38 = 2w

w = 38/2

w = 19

7 7/9 clergs.
wergs= w
nergs= n
clergs= c

3w= 4n, so 5w= 6 2/3n
Since 6n=7c, then 6 2/3n= 7 7/9n

Answer:

The given statement is true because the person they did their steps correctly

a) Locate a point C so that ABC is a right triangle with m ACB ∠ = ° 90 and the measure of one of the acute angles in the triangle is 45° .

b) Locate a point D so that ABD is a right triangle with m ADB ∠ = ° 90 and

the measure of one of the acute angles in the triangle is30° .

c) Locate a point E so that ABE is a right triangle with m AEB ∠ = ° 90 and

the measure of one of the acute angles in the triangle is15° .

d) Find the distance between point C and the midpoint of segment AB .

Repeat with points D and E.

e) Suppose F is a point on the graph so that ABF is a right triangle

withm AFB ∠ =° 90 . Make a conjecture about the point F.

The width of a rectangle is 75% the length of the rectangle. the perimeter of the rectangle is 42 inches. a circle is drawn that
matrenka [14]

Answer:

  x = 56.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of the rectangle are in the ratio 3:4, so those together with the diagonal of the rectangle make a 3-4-5 right triangle. The sum of these adjacent-side ratio units is 3+4 = 7, so the perimeter in ratio units is 2×7 = 14. The actual perimeter is 42 inches, so each ratio unit must stand for ...

  (42 in)/(14 units) = 3 in/unit

The diagonal of the rectangle is the diameter of the circle. Its length is 5 units, or ...

  (5 units)×(3 in/unit) = 15 inches.

Then the radius is half the diameter, or 7.5 inches.

The area of a circle is given by ...

  A = πr² = π(7.5 in)² = 56.25π in²

The value of x is 56.25.
