Answer:
C. x = 3, y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
If both triangles are congruent by the HL Theorem, then their hypotenuse and a corresponding leg would be equal to each other.
Thus:
x + 3 = 3y (eqn. 1) => equal hypotenuse
Also,
x = y + 1 (eqn. 2) => equal legs
✔️Substitute x = y + 1 into eqn. 1 to find y.
x + 3 = 3y (eqn. 1)
(y + 1) + 3 = 3y
y + 1 + 3 = 3y
y + 4 = 3y
y + 4 - y = 3y - y
4 = 2y
Divide both sides by 2
4/2 = 2y/2
2 = y
y = 2
✔️ Substitute y = 2 into eqn. 2 to find x.
x = y + 1 (eqn. 2)
x = 2 + 1
x = 3
The area of the rectangle is simply width times length.
Hence, A = w*l = (6/5)*12 = 72/5 = 14.4 square inches (ANSWER)
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a rectangle is calculated as
A = width × length
let width be w then length is 2w + 3 ( 3 more than twice the width ), then
A = w(2w + 3) ← distribute
= 2w² + 3w
When w = 4 , then
A = 2(4)² + 3(4)
= 2(16) + 12
= 32 + 12
= 44 ft²

- Boys = 15 * 3 = 45
- Total = 15 + 45 = 60
16. 2(5)^2 + 5 = 2(25) + 5 = 50 + 5 = 55
Answer: 50 degrees
You cut the arc measure 100 degrees in half. This is using the inscribed angle theorem. The angle 'a' is the inscribed angle that cuts off this 100 degree arc.
