Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
in this case we have a right angled triangle, whenever you see this triangle think of the TRIG RATIOS * sin, cos & tan* but if it was another triangle besides right angled triangle you use SINE RULE OR COSINE RULE
SOLUTION
Answer:
34 years
Step-by-step explanation:
f = s + 28 Eq. 1
f+8 = 3(s+8) Eq. 2
f = father age
s = son age
replacing Eq. 1 on Eq. 2
(s+28) + 8 = 3(s+8)
s + 36 = 3*s + 3*8
s + 36 = 3s + 24
36 - 24 = 3s - s
12 = 2s
12/2 = s
s = 6
from the Eq. 1
f = 6 + 28
f = 34
Check
from the Eq. 2
34+8 = 3(6+8)
42 = 3*14
P = 2(L + W)
P = 50
L = 15
50 = 2(15 + W)
50 = 30 + 2W
50 - 30 = 2W
20 = 2W
20/2 = W
10 = W.....so the width is 10 inches
