The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula,
We substitute,
and
into the above formula to obtain the expression,
We now group the x and y terms on the Left Hand Side of the equation to get.
We now divide through by 2 to get,
Therefore the width of the rectangle is
Question: Given that BE bisects ∠CEA, which statements must be true? Select THREE options.
(See attachment below for the figure)
m∠CEA = 90°
m∠CEF = m∠CEA + m∠BEF
m∠CEB = 2(m∠CEA)
∠CEF is a straight angle.
∠AEF is a right angle.
Answer:
m∠CEA = 90°
∠CEF is a straight angle.
∠AEF is a right angle
Step-by-step explanation:
Line AE is perpendicular to line CF, which is a straight line. This creates two right angles, <CEA and <AEF.
Angle on a straight line = 180°. Therefore, m<CEA + m<AEF = m<CEF. Each right angle measures 90°.
Thus, the three statements that must be TRUE are:
m∠CEA = 90°
∠CEF is a straight angle.
∠AEF is a right angle
