Based on the longitudes of Quito and Singapore, the shortest distance between the two areas is 19,702.5 km .

<h3>How far is Quito from Singapore?</h3>

Because both cities are close to the equator, you use the longitudinal difference method to find the shortest distance.

First find the difference in longitudes:

= Singapore - Quito

= 104 - (-78.5) because Quito is west

= 104 + 78.5

= 182.5°

Then subtract this from 360°:
= 360 - 182.5

= 177.5°

Every 1° longitude along the Equator is 111 km so the shortest distance is:

= 177.5 x 111

= 19,702.5 km

How do I know if it’s similar, congruent or neither?
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

These two triangles are congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

You know this bc the markings on the drawing show that Angle B and Angle D are congruent. Also that AB is parallel to CD. This means that Angle BAC and Angle DCA are congruent by ALTERNATE INTERIOR ANGLES. Also, AC is congruent to itself. That makes the two triangles congruent by ANGLE-SIDE-ANGLE.

Now, you need to know that "congruent" triangles (and shapes in general) are the same size and shape. "Similar" triangles (shapes) are the same shape but not necessarily the same size.

Lena [83]

Answer

44

Step-by-step explanation:

R = C/(2*Pi).

So, in order to find the radius from the circumference, you use the formula R = C/(2*Pi). In other words, just divide the circumference by 2 times pi.

Three stamps can be attached to each other in various ways.how many ways might three stamps be attached?
ivanzaharov [21]
Let's call the stamps A, B, and C. They can each be used only once. I assume all 3 must be used in each possible arrangement.
There are two ways to solve this. We can list each possible arrangement of stamps, or we can plug in the numbers to a formula. 
Let's find all possible arrangements first. We can easily start spouting out possible arrangements of the 3 stamps, but to make sure we find them all, let's go in alphabetical order. First, let's look at the arrangements that start with A:
ABC
ACB
There are no other ways to arrange 3 stamps with the first stamp being A. Let's look at the ways to arrange them starting with B:
BAC
BCA
Try finding the arrangements that start with C:
C_ _
C_ _
Or we can try a little formula; y×(y-1)×(y-2)×(y-3)...until the (y-x) = 1 where y=the number of items.
In this case there are 3 stamps, so y=3, and the formula looks like this: 3×(3-1)×(3-2).
Confused? Let me explain why it works.
There are 3 possibilities for the first stamp: A, B, or C. 
There are 2 possibilities for the second space: The two stamps that are not in the first space.
There is 1 possibility for the third space: the stamp not used in the first or second space. 
So the number of possibilities, in this case, is 3×2×1.
We can see that the number of ways that 3 stamps can be attached is the same regardless of method used.
