Answer:
Dimensions of original room = 12 x 12 feet.
Explanation:
Let the size of old square room be a x a.
New dimension = ( a+4 ) x ( a + 6 )
We have area of the new room will be 144 square feet greater than the area of the original room.
So, ( a+4 ) x ( a + 6 ) = a x a + 144
a²+10a+24= a²+144
10a = 120
a = 12 feet.
Dimensions of original room = 12 x 12 feet.
Answer:
x = 20√2 and y = 20√3.
or x = 28.28 and y = 34.64 to the nearest hundredths.
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the 2 'inside' triangles. They are similar.
So we have x / (60-40) = 40 / x
x/ 20 = 40 /x
x^2 = 800
x = √800
x = 20√2
y = √(800 + 20^2)
= √(1200)
= 20√3.
Answer:
yea I'm not sure but maybe 40
