Since width is the smaller value, set width=x. That wold mean that length=x+3. Since Area=width*length, 40=x(3+x). Distribute the x to give you 40=3x+x^2. Set the equation equal to 0 giving you x^2+3x-40=0. Factor the equation to give you (x+8)(x-5)=0. Set each factor equal to 0. x+8=0 gives you x=-8 & x=-5 gives you x=5. Since we're working with lengths of objects, it can't be negative. Therefore, your width is 5. To find length, substitute width into the original expression (x+3). Therefore, length is 5+3=8.
Answer:
are corresponding angles and are congruent to each other.
are alternate exterior angles and thus congruent to each other.
are interior angles on the same side, and they are supplementary(sum=180°).
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Line 
Line 
is traversal.
By angle properties we can name the angle relationship of given angle pairs.
are corresponding angles and are congruent to each other.
are alternate exterior angles and thus congruent to each other.
are interior angles on the same side, and thus they are supplementary.
