A. Scale factor = 2

B. The missing length of each side of polygon B are: 3 and 5

C. The measure of each angle that is marked in Polygon A are:

53° and 82°.

<h3>How to Find the Scale Factor of Similar Polygons?</h3>

Similar polygons have the same shape and size, hence, the length of their corresponding sides are proportional to each other, while their corresponding angle measures are congruent to each other.

Scale factor = dimension of new polygon / corresponding dimension of original polygon.

A. From the given image of the two polygons, we have the following:

Dimension of new polygon, A = 5

Corresponding dimension of original polygon, B = 2.5

Scale factor = 5/2.5

Scale factor = 2

B. The missing length of each side of polygon B are:

1.5 × scale factor = 1.5 × 2 = 3

2.5 × scale factor = 2.5 × 2 = 5

C. Both polygons are similar, therefore, they will have the same angle measures.

The measure of each angle that is marked in Polygon A are:

53° and 82°.

Chord JK intersects chord ST at point L. Find the length of St. If necessary, round to the tenths place.
raketka [301]

Answer:

(C)19

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram is drawn and attached.

Using the intersecting chord theorem

SL X LT = JL X LK

x X 12 = 14(x-1)

12x=14x-14

12x-14x=-14

-2x=-14

x=7

Therefore:

ST= SL + LT

=x+12

=7+12

ST=19

The correct option is C

Sarah rolls a die twice. What is the probability that she rolls a 3 and then an even number?
egoroff_w [7]
1/12

This is because she has a 1/6 chance of getting a 3 on the first try and then a 1/2 chance of getting an even on the second. Multiply these two together to get your answer.
