It is B hope this helps :)
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The correct option is A.
A) m, because ΔABC ~ ΔEDC
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the both triangles.
<B = 60°
<D = 60°
<B and <D are congruent
<ACB = 90°
<DCE = 90°
<ACB and < DCE are also congruent.
As sum of the angles of triangle is 180°
<A = 180° - <ACB - <B
<A = 180° - 90° - 60
<A = 30° = m
<E = 180° - <DCE - <D
<E = 180° - 90° - 60°
<E = 30°
As m = 30°
<E = <CED = m
As segment AD cuts segment BE, which results in formation of two triangle, and as all angles of both triangles are equal, both triangles are similar.
To solve this, you need to use cross multiplication. The first fraction, is 3/4 and the second is 6/x, with x meaning how much the container can hold. Multiply 3x(x) and 4x6 equating to 3x=24. From here, use algebra to solve for x, by dividing both sides by three.
Your final answer will be B) 8 qts
