Find the ratio of the two similar sides that both dimensions are given.
The smaller triangle aide that is 4 units is the similar side of the larger triangle given as 8 units.
8 / 4 =2, this means the larger triangle is 2 times the size of the smaller triangle, which also means the smaller triangle is 1/2 the size of the larger triangle.
X on the smaller triangle is 1/2 11 units which equals 5.5 units.
Y is 2 times 3, which equals 6 units.
x = 5.5
y = 6
Answer:
Let l be the length and w the width of the rectangle.
P as the perimeter and A as the area.
length of a rectangle is four times the width:
w = w
l = 4w
System of equation : 2l + 2w = P
Substitute:
2(4w) + 2w = 45
8w + 2w
10w = 45
w = 45 / 10
w = 4.5
Solve for l:
l = 4w
l = 4(4.5)
l = 18
Area:
A = lw
A = 18(4.5)
A = 81 in²
