A 12-foot by 15-foot patio is increased by placing a stone border around the patio. The width of the border is the same all around the patio. The perimeter of the patio after it is expanded is 74 feet. A rectangle has a length of 15 feet and height of 12 feet. The equation which represents x, the width of the border is 2 left-bracket (12 + 2 x) + (15 + 2 x) right-bracket = 74. What is the width of the border? 2 and one-half feet 3 feet 5 feet 8 and one-half feet

Step-by-step explanation:

8 1/2

pentagon

step-by-step explanation:

the coordinates   a(5, -2), b(3,-1),c(-4,-4) d(-3,8) and e(-1,4) forms the vertices of the polygon when they are connected in order.

in order to classify that which polygon is it with the given coordinates, first count the number of vertices and then count the number of sides it can make with these vertices.

since, the given coordinates have five vertices, therefore, it will make five sides. moreover, pentagon is regular in nature therefore it will be convex.

now, a polygon with five sides is known as pentagon, therefore, the given polygon is the pentagon.
