Question 1
A rectangle has a width that is 8 less than twice the length. The perimeter of the rectangle is 20 feet. What are the
dimensions, in feet, of the rectangle? Dont include the units in your answer

Length: 6 ft

Width: 4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Length: L

Width: 2L - 8

2L + 2(2L - 8) = 20

2L + 4L - 16 = 20

6L = 36

L = 36/6

L = 6

W= 2(6)-8 = 4

step-by-step explanation:

the correct option is 2.

step-by-step explanation:

according to the given information triangle abc is a right angle triangle with right angle at a. segment ab is 5 and segment ac is 7. point d is on segment bc and angles adb and adc are right angles.

it is given that triangles abd, cad, and cba are similar.

two triangles are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional.

in triangle cba, using pythagoras theorem

                      )

triangle abd and cba are similar,

                            (2)

triangle cad and cba are similar,

                      )

using (1), (2) and (3), we get

hence proved.

therefore option 2 is correct.
