The length of a rectangle is 3 meters more than the width. the perimeter of the rectangle is 26 meters. if the width is b, which equation represents the situation? how many solutions will this equation have? a. (b + 3)(b) = 26, which has one solution b. 2(b + 3) + 2b = 26, which has infinitely many solutions c. 2[(b + 3) + b] = 26, which has one solution d. 2[(b + 3) + b] = 26, which has no solution

The answer is C. Because of the context of the problem, it can only have one solution.

step-by-step explanation:

solution:

we have to construct

∠m nt ≅ ∠p qr

the steps to draw this construction are

step 1: use a compass to draw an arc from point q which intersects the side pq at point a and the side qr at point b.

step 2: draw a segment nt and use the same width of the compass to draw an arc from point n which intersects the segment nt at a point x.

step 3:

step 4: join points n and y using a straightedge.

step 3:

option (d).maintaining the same width of the compass as ab, draw an arc from point x such that it intersects the arc drawn from n in a point y.

to draw   congruent angles , 1. width of compasses while drawing two angles should be same i.e from point at which angle has to be drawn, 2.the distance between the two points where the compass intersects the two sides should be same while drawing any two congruent angles.
