Answer:

5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

(5 + x)(10 + x) = 6x²

x² + 15x + 50 = 6x²

5x² - 15x + 50 = 0

x² - 3x + 10 = 0

(x - 5)(x + 3) = 0

x = 5, x = -3

We want x to be positive, so x = 5.

Thus, each dimension must be increased by 5 inches.

Find the measure of the missing angles.
seropon [69]
Okay with the vertical angles theorem we know that the angles across from each other are congruent so that immediately tells us g=92°.
then the straight line that h and 92° is on =180 so we can use that to solve for h. so 180-92=88. so h =88.
same rules apply to the lower intersection. k=91° and 91+m=180. so m=89°
