the width of a rectangle is x centimetres and its length is (x+ 2) cm. Write down an expression for the perimeter of the rectangle, giving your answer in its simplest form

Given:

The width of a rectangle is x centimeters and its length is (x+ 2) cm.

To find:

The expression for the perimeter of the rectangle.

Solution:

We know that, perimeter of a rectangle is

We have,

Width = x cm

Length = (x+2) cm

Putting these values in the above formula, we get

Therefore, the required expression for the perimeter of the rectangle is (4x+4) cm.

m∠cdf = 43° , m∠gdf = 114°, m∠gde = 23°, m∠edh = 23° , m∠cdh = 157°

step-by-step explanation:

since, it is given that de bisects the angle gdh ⇒ de divides the angle gdh into two equal angles.

⇒ m∠gde = m∠edh

⇒ 8·x   - 1 = 6·x + 5

⇒ x = 3

so, m∠gde = 8·x - 1 = 23°

and m∠edh = 23°

now, it is given ∠cde is an straight angle so, m∠cde = 180°

⇒ m∠cdf + m∠fdg + m∠gde = 180°

⇒ 43° + m∠fdg + 23° = 180°

⇒ m∠fdg = 114°

again, m∠cde = m∠cdh + m∠edh = 180°

m∠cdh + 23° = 180°

⇒ m∠cdh = 157°
