Pythagorean theorem:
adrian is standing on the ground 12 ft from the base of a tree that is 5 ft tall. sofi is standing
on the ground 8 ft closer to the base of the tree than adrian. what’s the distance from adrian’s
location on the ground to the top of the tree? what’s the distance from sofi’s location on the
ground to the top of the tree?

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

because first you have to add the 4x, 9x, and the 7x together and you get 20x and then you add the last numbers up and you get 5and then you put the subtraction sign in there and that's how you get the answer.
