A rectangle has a perimeter of 80 cm and its length is 1 cm more than twice its width. Find the dimensions of a rectangle given

that its perimeter is 80 cm and its length is 1 cm more than twice its width. Set up your solution using the variables L for the length, W for the width, and P for the perimeter. Part a: Using the definition of the perimeter, write an equation for P in terms of L and W. Part b: Using the relationship given in the problem statement, write an equation for L in terms of W. Solve the equations from parts a and b. Part c: The length is ? Cm. Part d: The width is? Cm.

Answer: (a) P = 6W + 2

(b) L = 2W + 1

(c) Width = 13cm

Length = 27cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for perimeter of a rectangle is 2(length + width). Since the length is 1 cm more than twice its width, then the length will be:

L = (2 × W) + 1

(b) L = 2W + 1

Therefore, P = 2(L + W)

P = 2( 2W + 1) + 2W

P = 4W + 2 + 2W

(a) P = 6W + 2

Since perimeter is given as 80cm. Therefore,

P = 6W + 2

6W + 2 = 80

6W = 80 - 2

6W = 78

W = 78/6

W = 13

Width is 13cm

Length = 2W + 1

Length = 2(13) + 1

Length = 27cm

Vertical angles are angles opposite of eachother and therefore the same. Since angle 2 is 93° that means angle 1 must also be 93°

What is the area of a sector with a central angle 210 and a diameter of 4.6
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
Theta = 210°
r = 4.6/2 = 2.3
Area of circle = pi * r * r
= 3.14 * 2.3 * 2.3 = 16.61
Area of sector =
(theta / 360) * area of circle
= (210/360) * 16.61
= 9.69

Find the value of b that will make the equation sin 62°= cos B true when 0°
KiRa [710]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

b = 28 degrees

Discussion:

In general,

sin (90 - @) = cos(@)

Set 90 [email protected] = 62  => @ = 28 so

sin (90-28) = sin(62) = cos(28)    => b = 28

Thank you,

MrB
