I Need To Find The Perimeter Of A Rectangle Where One Side Is X And The Other Side Is X + 12. The Perimeter Of The Triangle Is Equal With Two Sides Being X + 11 And One Side X + 16. How Do I Get The Perimeter?

Asked by Ericbrando in Algebra 1 year ago - 1 answer

RectangleA rectangle is a 4-sided figure having opposite sides of equal length. The perimeter is the sum of the measures of each of the sides. Your rectangle has 2 sides of length (x) and 2 sides of length (x+12), so the perimeter isP = 2(x) + 2(x+12) = 4x+24TriangleA triangle is a 3-sided figure. The perimeter is the sum of the measures of each of ...more

Perimeter Can You Use The Formula For The Length Of A Line Segment And A Sketch To Find The Perimeter Of The Quadrilateral A(3,5), B(-2,6), C(3,-1), D(10,2)?

Asked by Bant in Algebra 2 years ago - 1 answer

Well I believe you can use either the formula or the sketch method. Since I am working on the computer I will do it by the formula which is square root {(x1-x2)^2 + (y1-y2)^2} The lengths are: AD=square root 58 CD=square root 58 BC=square root 74 AB=square root 26 Adding all these sides the perimeter becomes approx. 28.39. ...more

Two Similar Triangles Have A Scale Factor Of 1:3. If The Perimeter Of The Smaller Triangle Is 27, What Is The Perimeter Of The Larger?

Asked by Guest719227 in Mathematics 8 months ago - 1 answer

Well, there are two ways to solve this problem. One would be to draw two triangles, and lets say the fist triangle's sides are all 9. By adding them up, the perimeter is 27, which is the same as in the problem. Since the scale factor is 1:3, that means the side lengths are 3 times a big, so multiply each side by 3, and the side lengths of the new triangle are all 27. Add them all together ...more

A Square Has An Area Of 144 Sq Cm. Three Fourths Of The Square's Perimeter Is Equal To The Perimeter Of A Regular Hexagon. What Is The Length Of One Side Of The Hexagon?

Asked by Momlael in Geometry 9 months ago - 1 answer

6 cm to find a side of the square you take the square root of 144 since it is a side of the square squared. Then you multiply the square root of 144 (which is 12) times 4 to find the perimeter of the square. The perimeter equals 48 cm. Three fourths of the perimeter equals 36. Now to find a side of the hexagon, you simply divide the 36 cm by 6 ...more

Perimeter Of A Rectangle. The Perimeter Of A Rectangular Backyard Is 6x + 6 Yards. If The Width Is X Yards, Can You Find A Binomial That Represents The Length.?

Asked by Guest291618 in Algebra 10 months ago - 1 answer

Rectangle has four sides: Two representing width (hence called W), two representing length (L). Therefore, perimeter, P = 2W+2L = 2 (W+L) Thus, 6x + 6 = 2 (W+L)            3x + 3 = W + L If W = x,             3x + 3 = W+L             3x ...more

How Do I Write And Solve An Equation For The Following ? The Length Of A Rectangle Is 2 Cm More Than It's Width . What Is Its Width If It's Perimeter Is 60 Cm? I Already Know To Get Perimeter It's P=L(2) + W(2)

Asked by Guest290020 in Geometry 10 months ago - 2 answers

You have one equationP = L(2) + W(2)The other ones areL = W + 2P = 60To solve these, make the substitutions indicated by the two extra equations ...60 = (W+2)(2) + W(2)    (this is probably the equation you are looking for)30 = W+2 + W    (divide both sides by 2)28 = 2W    (subtract 2 from both sides)14 = W    (divide both ...more
