Answer:

117 m^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

First think of the square that was removed.  All 4 sides are equal but you don't know the length so lets gives them the variable X.

So to find the area of the rectangle, insert those variables into the area equation for a rectangle.

(RV + (X) ) (PT +(X)) = rectangle area

Now you are given what the area is if you remove the square.  So subtract the the square's area from the equation above and set it equal to the size they told you.

(RV + (X)) (PT + (X))  - [(X)(X)] = 92m^{2}

      rectangle          -  square  =  remaining area

Now plug in the numbers you know and solve for X.

(8 + X) (4 + X) - ((X)(X)) = 92    

Use FOIL to multiply the first part of the equation (first, outer, inner, last)

32 + 8x + 4x + x^{2} -  x^{2}  =  92

32 + 12x = 92

12x = 60

x = 5

So now you know the size of the square.  Each side is 5m.  So add 5m onto the top of the rectangle and onto the side.  The top is 13m and the side is 9m.  The area of the rectangle is the length times the height to 13 x 9 which is 117 m^{2}

PLZZZZZ HELP NEEDED ASAP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST (IF RIGHT)
Harlamova29_29 [7]

x= 90° - 63° = 27° (NO perpendicular to AOB)

angle DOB = (90°+90°) -128° (angles on a straight line)

= 180° - 128°

= 52°

y= 180° - x - 63° - angle DOB (angles on a straight line)

=180° - 27° - 63° - 52°

= 38°

I'm not sure of the answer tho^^ good luck!

A 29- m tall building casts a shadow. The distance from the top of the building to the tip of the shadow is 33 . Find the length
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

About 17.7 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved by imagining the triangle formed by the building and its shadow. The hypotenuse of the triangle, the distance from the tip of the building to the tip of the shadow, is 34 meters, and one of the legs is 29 meters. Therefore, we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find that the third side is . Hope this helps!
