Question

The perimeter of the rectangle below is 84 unit . Find the length side of XY

Answer 1

Answer:

25 unit

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for the missing figure.

Assuming the complete question is:

Side UY = 4z-1  

Side UV = 5z+3  

Perimeter of rectangle is given by:

2UY+2UV=P

2(4z-1)+2(5z+3)=84

8z-2+10z+6=84

18z+4=84

18z = 84 -4 =>

18z = 80

z= 4.45 unit

Side UV = 5z+3 => 5(4.45) + 3

Side UV ≈ 25 unit

SInce, Side UV = Side XY

Side XY≈ 25 unit
