Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2L +2W
L is the length
W is the width
If the length of a rectangle is 2 cm less than 7 times the width, then;
L = 7W-2 .... 2
Substitute eqn into the formula for finding the perimeter
P = 2(7W-2)+2W
P = 14W-4+2W
P = 16W-4
If P =60cm
60 = 16W-4
16W = 60+4
16W = 64
W = 64/16
W = 4cm
Hence the width of the rectangle is 4cm
Since l = 7w-
l = 7(4)-2
L = 28-2
L = 26cm
You can proceed and draw a rectangle with the dimension of 4cm by 26cm
Answer:
Trigonometry can be used to measure the height of a building or mountains
Step-by-step explanation:
if you know the distance from where you observe the building and the angle of elevation you can easily find the height of the building. Similarly, if you have the value of one side and the angle of depression from the top of the building you can find and another side in the triangle, all you need to know is one side and angle of the triangle.
a) ∠PQR=65° (alternate interior angles theorem)
∠PRQ = 60° (linear pair)
x = 55° (angles in a triangle add to 180°)
b) ∠APQ and ∠PQR are congruent alternate interior angles.
