Answer:
Length of rectangle = 16 cm
Width of rectangle = 4 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Area of rectangle = 64 cm²
Find:
Length and width
Computation:
Assume;
Length of rectangle = a
So,
Width of rectangle = a -12
Area of rectangle = l x b
So,
a(a-12) = 64
a² - 12a - 64 = 0
a² - (16-4)a - 64 = 0
a² - 16a+ 4a - 64 = 0
a (a-16) + 4(a-16)= 0
(a-16)(a+4) = 0
a= 16 , a = -4
So,
Length of rectangle = 16 cm
Width of rectangle = a -12
Width of rectangle = 16 -12
Width of rectangle = 4 cm
Let's break apart 42.
The 4 is in the tens. The 2 is in the ones.
Place Value starting from Thousands
Thousands Hundreds Tens Ones

4 2
So this is how we break up numbers using place value.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
A. x = 58°
B. x = 10m
C. a = 44°
All approximated to nearest whole number.
Step-by-step explanation:
All triangles given are right angled triangles. Therefore, we would apply the trigonometry functions to solve for each missing side and angle.
Recall: SOHCAHTOA
a. Adjacent = 4.8cm,
Hypotenuse = 9cm
Angle to find =x°
Thus, we would apply the following formula:
Cos θ = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
Cos θ = 4.8/9 = 0.5333
θ = Cos-¹(0.5333) = 57.77
x ≈ 58° (to nearest whole number)
b. Opposite side = x
Hypothenuse = 40 m
Included angle = 14°
We would use:
Sine θ = opposite/hypothenuse
Sin (14) = x/40
Multiply both sides by 40
40*sin(14) = x
40*0.2419 = x
x = 9.676 = 10 m (to nearest whole number)
c. Opposite = 87mm
Adjacent = 91mm
θ = a°
We would use:
Tan θ = opposite/adjacent
Tan θ = 87/91
Tan θ = 0.9560
θ = tan-¹(0.9560)
θ = a = 43.71
a ≈ 44° (to nearest whole number)
x/110 = (320-x)/90
<span> Cross multiply</span>
90x = 35200-110x
200x=35200
X = 35200/200 = 176 (distance traveled by train going 110 mph
176/110 = 1.6 hours = 1 hour and 36 minutes
Check: 110*1.6 = 176, 90*1.6 = 144
176+144 = 320
it will take 1.6 hours ( 1 hour 36 minutes) for the trains to meet
