Answer:
L = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the Length x and width x - 15 since the width is 15 less than length
Eric needs 70 of fencing in total, the perimeter of a rectangle is calculated by adding all sides
x + x + (x - 15) + (x - 15) = 70 add like terms
4x - 30 = 70 add 30 to both sides
4x = 100 divide both sides by 4
x = 25
The second side of a triangular deck is 4 feet longer than the shortest side
(s+4) = the 2nd side
and a third side that is 4 feet shorter than twice the length of the shortest side.
(2s-4) = the 3rd side
If the perimeter of the deck is 48 feet, what are the lengths of the three sides?
s + (s+4) + (2s-4) = 48
Combine like terms
s + s + 2s + 4 - 4 = 48
4s = 48
s = 48/4
s = 12 ft is the shortest side
I'll let you find the 2nd and 3rd sides, ensure they add up to 48
Hope this helps!
Given:
m∠APD = (7x + 1)°
m∠DPC = 90°
m∠CPB = (9x - 7)°
To find:
The measure of arc ACD.
Solution:
<em>Sum of the adjacent angles in a straight line = 180°</em>
m∠APD + m∠DPC + m∠CPB = 180°
7x° + 1° + 90° + 9x° - 7° = 180°
16x° + 84° = 180°
Subtract 84° from both sides.
16x° + 84° - 84° = 180° - 84°
16x° = 96°
Divide by 16° on both sides.
x = 6
m∠APB = 180°
m∠BPD = (9x - 7)° + 90°
= (9(6) - 7)° + 90°
= 47° + 90°
m∠BPD = 137°
m∠APD = m∠APB + m∠BPD
= 180° + 137°
= 317°
<em>The measure of the central angle is congruent to the measure of the intercepted arc.</em>
m(ar ACD) = m∠APD
m(ar ACD) = 317°
The arc measure of ACD is 317°.
Answer: 9/12 is equivalent to 3/4.
Explanation: 3 times 12 = 36 and 4 times 9 = 36.
