A cabinet door has a perimeter of 76 inches. Its area is 357 square inches. What are the dimensions of the door?

  17 by 21 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is twice the sum of the dimensions, and the area is their product, so you have ...

  L + W = 38

  LW = 357

__

Solution:

  W(38 -W) = 357 . . . . . substitute for L

  -(W^2 -76W) = 357 . . expand on the left

  -(W^2 -38 +19^2) = 357 -19^2 . . . . complete the square

  (W -19)^2 = 4 . . . . . . . write as a square

  W -19 = ±√4 = ±2 . . . take the square root; next, add 19

  W = 19 ±2 = {17, 21} . . . . if width is one of these, length is the other

The dimensions are 17 by 21 inches.
