Answer:

18 in

Step-by-step explanation:

len = y

width= y - 6

the area of rectangle is len x width

(Y) x (Y-6) = 216

Y^2 - 6Y = 216, Y^2 - 6y -216 = 0

y = (36 /2) or (-24 /2)

len couldn't be negative so 18

If A ABC ~ ARST and m 2 A = 42°, m 2 C = 60°,<br> find the measure of < S.

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180 { Angle sum property of triangle}

42 + ∠B + 60 = 180

∠B + 102 = 180

∠B = 180 - 102 = 78

In similar triangles, corresponding angles are congruent.

∠S ≅ ∠B

∠S = 78°
