Answer:

x = 11.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles of any triangle must add up to 180°.  Since we have the expressions for each angle:  5x, 8x, and (2x +9), we can solve for the variable of 'x' by adding the expressions together and setting them equal to 180:

5x + 8x + (2x +9) = 180

Combine like terms:  15x + 9 = 180

Use inverse operations: 15x + 9 - 9 = 180 - 9

                                                     15x = 171  or x = 11.4

Check:  5(11.4) + 8(11.4) + 2(11.4) + 9 = 57 + 91.2 + 22.8 + 9 = 180

A square has an area of 81 yd^2. what is the length of each side
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

9 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

A square has 4 equal sides, this means the 2 sides we will multiply to get the area are going to be the same. Since it says 81 yards squared and the shape is a square, we can do the square root of 81 which is 9.
