You could use a proportion and cross-multiply. For example, if the reduced rectangle had a length of 3 and a width of 5, and then the one measurement of the original rectangle is length of 7, you could set a proportion like:
3/5 = 7/x

Then, cross multiply to solve for x, and that sound give the missing measure.

Using the given measurements of both figures, set up a proportion that has the corresponding parts in the same position. Then solve the proportion using cross products to find the value for the unknown.

Devon exercised the same amount of time each day for 5 days last week. e His exercise included walking and swimming. e Each day
prohojiy [21]
I think that Devon swam at least 35 minutes each day for 5 days because if he exercised 225 minutes and each day he walked for 10 minutes then if you divide 225 by 5 you get 45 so every day he exercised 45 minutes and since he walked for 10 minutes you subtract 10 from 45 which gives you 35 so he swam for 35 minutes.

On a rectangular soccer field, Sang is standing on the goal line 20 yards from the corner post. Jazmin is standing 99 yards from
Anna007 [38]
Okay, so Sang is standing 20 yards away from one corner, and Jazmin is standing 99 yards away from the same corner. If this is a rectangle (I like visuals, so I'll use them to explain), then:
               
                    99ft
      A  -------------------------  B
         |                              |
20 ft  |                              |
         |                              |
    C   --------------------------  D

The question is asking you to solve for the diagonal line between points C and B. If you imagine a line there, you actually have the rectangle split into two triangles. So if you have triangle ABC, side CB would be the longest line, or the hypotenuse. That means you can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve the problem.

A^2 + B^2 = C^2
99^2 + 20^2 = C^2
9,801 + 400 = C^2
10,201 = C^2

Now you solve for the square root of 10,201 to get C.

sqr (10,201) = C
C = 101 yards
