Answer:
36 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
lets think of it as a ratio,
80:w
20:9
so we want 20 to get to 80
and 9 to get to w right?
so if we just move the smaller rectangle to the corner, then 20*4=80 right?
and if we do that, we do it to 9 as well, 9*4=36
w=36
Step-by-step explanation:
A = (1/2)bh ---> h = 2A/b = 2(12 cm^2)/(5 cm) = 4.80 cm
---> x^2 = h^2 + (b/2)^2
= (4.8 cm)^2 + (2.5)^2
= 23.04 cm^2 + 6.25 cm^2
or x = 5.41 cm
Therefore, the perimeter P is
P = 2x + b = 2(5.41 cm) + 5 cm = 15.8 cm
