a rectangle is 12 feet longer than it is wide. Find the dimensions of the rectangle if the area is 220 sq ft

Width - x

Length - (x+12)

Area - x(x+12)

x(x+12)=220

x²+12x-220=0     -220 =22*(-10), 12=22-10

(x+22)(x-10)=0

x=-22, x=10

For width, we can use the only positive number,

so, the width is 10 feet.

Length is 10+12=22 feet.

question

given the diagram below, what is md?

the sum of the interior angles is 360°

take away from 360 the sum of the knows angles and you will have the angle d.

360 - 108 - 108 - 72 = 72°
