A park plans to increase the area of a 12 feet by 20 feet rectangular platform. They will add the same distance, x, to both the length and the width. For the new area to be 1008 square feet, how many feet should they add to each dimension

They need to add 16 feet to each dimension

Step-by-step explanation:

area = l*w

12 +16 = 28

20 +36 = 36

28*36 = 1008

proofs involving isosceles triangles often require special consideration because an isosceles triangle has several distinct properties that do not apply to normal triangles.(more about triangle types) therefore, when you are trying to prove that two triangles are congruent, and one or both triangles, are isosceles you have a few theorems that you can use to make your life easier.

step-by-step explanation:

an isosceles triangle has two congruent sides and two congruent angles. the congruent angles are called the base angles and the other angle is known as the vertex angle. ∠bac and ∠bca are the base angles of the triangle picture on the left. the vertex angle is ∠abc
