Tis the solution to the equation x + 16 = 64? x = 4 x = 32 x = 36 x = 47

x + 16 = 64       |subtract 16 from both sides

x = 48

i think the length is 12 and the width is 17

step-by-step explanation:

points a and b are equidistant from the desired line, so the line you find by using them will go through point r.

using points other than a and b will give the desired line only if they are equidistant from r. if they are randomly located, the perpendicular line you create will not necessarily go through point r, hence will not be a solution to the problem.
