Answer:
6 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
wire was bent into the shape of a rectangle with width 5 and length 7. If this wire is bent into shape of a square, what is the length of a side of the square
Given that:
Rectangular wire with the following dimension :
Width = 5
Length = 7
To obtain the total length of the wire :
Perimeter of rectangle :
2 (length + Width)
2 (5 + 7)
2(12)
= 24 cm
The length of each side of the square will be :
Number of sides = 4
Length of each side :
24 / 4 = 6 cm
Find slope as negative reciprocal of 2 => m=-1/2
y=mx + b
8=5(-1/2) +b
b=21/2
y= -1/2x +21/2
