Since we know that <C is congruent to <E, we can say that: A. the two triangles are similar by SAS.

<h3>The properties of similar triangles.</h3>

In Geometry, two triangles are similar when the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal in magnitude and their corresponding angles are congruent.

Ratio = BC/AC = 6/3 = 2.

Ratio = FE/DE = 4/2 = 2.

Thus, the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal in magnitude i.e BC/AC ≡ FE/DE.

Since we know that <C is congruent to <E, we can say that the two triangles are similar by side, angle, side (SAS) criterion.

3. A sign company is building a sign with the dimensions shown. What is the area, in square feet, of the sign? Round to the near

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

84.87sq ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let ABC be the triangle and AD be the perpendicular on BC such that BD=DC=7ft.

Now, it is known that $\frac{DC}{AC}=cos60^{0}$

$AC=\frac{7}{\frac{1}{2}}$

$AC=7ft$

Now, in triangle ADC, we have

$(AC)^{2}=(AD)^{2}+(DC)^{2}$

$(14)^{2}=(AD)^{2}+(7)^{2}$

$196-49=(AD)^{2}$

$AD=12.12ft$

Now, area of the triangle= $\frac{1}{2}{\times}b{\times}h$

= $\frac{1}{2}{\times}14{\times}12.12$

= $84.87sq ft$

Thus, area of the building is 84.87sq ft.

An art teacher has a roll of mural paper that is 5 meters long.

Ivenika [448]

<h3>Answer: 50</h3>

"deci" means tenth, so "decimeter" means "tenth of a meter"

0.10 meter = 1 decimeter

1 meter = 10 decimeters (multiply both sides by 10)

5 meters = 50 decimeters (multiply both sides by 5)

The teacher can get 50 pieces out of the roll of paper

The gym is filled with 215 students & adults. Student tickets are $.50 and adults are $2.00. If $250.00 was collected, how m

BARSIC [14]

In order to determine the correct answer, it would be helpful to set up equations. We do as follows:

Let x = students
y = adults

x + y = 215
.50x + 2y = 250

SOlving simultaneously, we have:

x = 120 students
y = 95 adults

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
