Help please
@dan815
Ill give medal and ill fan those who help.
I'll help you. :)
Here's how I see, it: there are two triangles there.
That means you can use 1/2bh = a
So use that to find the lengths of each side.
I am finding the a and b sir... I have the area of the rectangle but i am finding the perimeter of it.
and the diagonal is 194
OHHH lol
The Diagonal is the square root of (width squared + height squared): d = sqrt(w^2 + h^2)
so i have to find the a and b in order to compute the perimeter.
Yes, but you'll have two equations that a and b will have to fit. d = sqrt(a^2 + b^2) and 2(a + b)
Are you given any answer choices?
nope i have to find it. our instructor just reverse the question he gave us . Its finding the area.
so a = b * h
you're given d, which is sqrt(a^2 + b^2)
and you need to solve for p, which is 2(a + b)
Gah, I can't see the connection. Do you?
I think there is something wrong with the problem
So do I.
There isn't a calculator online that I can find that can use the variables given and find a and b.
I think We have to derive a new formula but . I think there's no formula that we can derive because it is perimeter and the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is PERIMETER = 2L+2W and the are is A=LXW
Area of rectangle,A= a*b = 18720 perimeter, P = 2a + 2b a^2 + b^2 = 194^2 from the area we can substitute for a or b use this expression in the eqn with D to find b now that you have a and b calculate P
No our teacher just reverse the question there is nothing wrong with the area
What? Can you elaborate it please
sorry I did not have D^2 which would be 194^2
are you asking to go through the steps above?
the perimeter is 548 but how can i get the a and b . I use the pythagorean theorem then i dont know what is next
Steps please
give me a minute i think i found a "short-cut"
is the question still to find the perimeter or is the question changed and the perimeter is now 548 given
are you there? I want to answer the right question?
@triciaal hey the perimeter is 548
Help please anyone
anyone help please
@imer
Given : Area = 18720 D= 194 b= ? since its regtangle then rectangle area=a*b |dw:1403432153988:dw| Hence :- ab=18720 and a^2+b^2=194^2
