Area=l*b=l*(l-2)=80(given)
so, l^2 - 2l =80
l^2 - 2l - 80=0
l=10 or -8
l=10,b=10-2=8
perimeter=2(l+b)=2(18)=36
Answer:
The answer is 35 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assume that the distance from W to Y is x miles
Distance from W to X is 70 % of x =0.7*x
Given distance from X to Y is 15 miles.
x-15=0.7x
x-0.7x=15
0.3x=15
x=15/0.3
x=50miles
Thus the distance from W to Y is 50 miles and the distance from W to X is 50-15=35 miles
Positive 28 because to negative will equal a positive number
Since triangle ABC is isosceles, then angles 1 and 9 are congruent.
4x + 3 = 9x - 47
-5x = -50
x = 10
m<1 = 4x + 3 = 40 + 3 = 43
m<1 = m<9 = 43
Triangle DBE is equilateral, so it is also equiangular.
m< 4 = m<5 = m<6 =60
Angles 3 and 8 are supplementary to congruent angles that measure 60 deg, so 180 - 60 = 120, so
m<3 = m<8 = 120
For angles 2 and 7, use the sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180 deg.
m<1 + m<2 + m<3 = 180
43 + m<2 + 120 = 180
m<2 + 163 = 180
m<2 = 17
m<2 = m<7 = 17
