If the perimeter of a square is 4x - 24, what is the area of the square?

Mathematics

DedPeter [7]3 years ago

Answer:

A = (x - 6)² sq. units or

A = (x² - 12x + 36) sq. units

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 4s, where s is the side.

4s = 4x - 24

s = x - 6

A = s²

A = (x - 6)² sq. units or

A = (x² - 12x + 36) sq. units

Answer:

7. A = 40.8 deg; B = 60.6 deg; C = 78.6 deg

8. A = 20.7 deg; B = 127.2 deg; C = 32.1 deg

Step-by-step explanation:

Law of Cosines

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab \cos C

You know the lengths of the sides, so you know a, b, and c. You can use the law of cosines to find C, the measure of angle C.

Then you can use the law of cosines again for each of the other angles. An easier way to solve for angles A and B is, after solving for C with the law of cosines, solve for either A or B with the law of sines and solve for the last angle by the fact that the sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180 deg.

7.

We use the law of cosines to find C.

18^2 = 12^2 + 16^2 - 2(12)(16) \cos C

324 = 144 + 256 - 384 \cos C

-384 \cos C = -76

\cos C = 0.2

C = \cos^{-1} 0.2

C = 78.6^\circ

Now we use the law of sines to find angle A.

Law of Sines

\dfrac{a}{\sin A} = \dfrac{b}{\sin B} = \dfrac{c}{\sin C}

We know c and C. We can solve for a.

\dfrac{a}{\sin A} = \dfrac{c}{\sin C}

\dfrac{12}{\sin A} = \dfrac{18}{\sin 78.6^\circ}

Cross multiply.

18 \sin A = 12 \sin 78.6^\circ

\sin A = \dfrac{12 \sin 78.6^\circ}{18}

\sin A = 0.6535

A = \sin^{-1} 0.6535

A = 40.8^\circ

To find B, we use

m<A + m<B + m<C = 180

40.8 + m<B + 78.6 = 180

m<B = 60.6 deg

8.

I'll use the law of cosines 3 times here to solve for all the angles.

Law of Cosines

a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bc \cos A

b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2ac \cos B

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab \cos C

Find angle A:

a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bc \cos A

8^2 = 18^2 + 12^2 - 2(18)(12) \cos A

64 = 468 - 432 \cos A

\cos A = 0.9352

A = 20.7^\circ

Find angle B:

b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2ac \cos B

18^2 = 8^2 + 12^2 - 2(8)(12) \cos B

324 = 208 - 192 \cos A

\cos B = -0.6042

B = 127.2^\circ

Find angle C:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab \cos C

12^2 = 8^2 + 18^2 - 2(8)(18) \cos B

144 = 388 - 288 \cos A

\cos C = 0.8472

C = 32.1^\circ
