The perimeter of a rectangle is 36 meters. If the length of the rectangle is 10 meters, what is the width (in meters)?

2 answers:

8 0

The width is 8. The length is 10 so 10+10 equals 20. You subtract 20 from 36 you get 16. 16/2 is 8. If you add 8+8+10+10 you get 36.

If m∠F = 90° and m∠G = 70°, then ∠F and ∠G are not supplementary.

miss Akunina [59]

a) Proof by contradiction is different from traditional proof as it accepts a single example showing that a statement is false, instead of having the need to derive a general relationship for all input values.

b) The statement is true by contradiction as the sum of the measures is of 160º, and not 180º.

<h3>What are supplementary angles?</h3>

Two angles are called supplementary angles if the sum of their measures has a value of 180º.

The measures of the angles in this problem are given as follows:

m∠F = 90°.

m∠G = 70°.

Then the sum of the measures of this angles is given as follows:

90 + 70 = 160º.

Which is a different sum of 160º, confirming the statement that the angles are not supplementary by contradiction.

The hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle is centimeters longer than either of its legs. Find the exact length of each side.

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Question

The hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle is 11 centimeters longer than either of its legs. find the exact length of each side.

Answer:

$Hypotenuse:37.56$

$Other\ Legs: 26.56$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the hypotenuse be y and the other legs be x.

So:

$y = 11 + x$

Required

Determine the exact dimension of the triangle

Using Pythagoras theorem;

$y^2 = x^2 + x^2$

$y^2 = 2x^2$

This gives:

$(11+x)^2 = 2x^2$

Open bracket

$121 + 22x + x^2= 2x^2$

Collect like terms

$2x^2 - x^2 -22x - 121 = 0$

$x^2 -22x - 121 = 0$

Using quadratic formula:

$x = \frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

$x = \frac{-(-22)\±\sqrt{(-22)^2 - 4*1*-121}}{2*1}$

$x = \frac{-(-22)\±\sqrt{968}}{2*1}$

$x = \frac{22\±31.11}{2}$

Split

$x = \frac{22+31.11}{2}\ or\ x = \frac{22-31.11}{2}\\$

$x = \frac{53.11}{2}\ or\ x = \frac{-9.11}{2}$

x can not be negative.

So:

$x = \frac{53.11}{2}$

$x = 26.56$

Recall that:

$y = 11 + x$

$y = 11 + 26.56$

$y = 37.56$

Hence, the dimensions are:

$Hypotenuse:37.56$

$Other\ Legs: 26.56$
