To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
1. You must apply the Law of Cosines, as you can see in the figure attached. Then:
- The first ship travels at in for two hours. Therefore, the side is:
- The second ship travels at for . Therefore, the side is:
- Now, you can calculate :
The answer is:
Answer:
120; 643 units squared
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter: Add all the sides, so 120 units
_________________________________
Area: First multiply 19 by 24 for the first shape within this other shape, so That equals 456 units squared. Since we know that one whole side is 36 we can subtract 19 from it to get the lower side of the smaller shape and then multiply that by 11. So the smaller side ends up being 17. So 17 times 11 equals: 187 units squared. Then just add the areas together 187+456=643 units squared.
Area = 36 = length*width
Then, while the area is constant the product length*width is constant.
Length and area are inversely related.
That means that to keep the same product (area), length vary in inverse proportion to width.
If you increase length, widht has to decrease to satisfy this relation:
width = 36/length
Of course, you can also say: length = 36 / width.
Answer:
4/42 = 2/21 when simplified down
