180° measures more than 90°, so according to the given statement, a plane angle is also an obtuse angle, and that is incorrect. From that, we conclude that the statement is not a good definition.

<h3>Is the following statement a good definition? </h3>

The given statement is:

"An obtuse angle is an angle whose measure is greater than 90°."

This is the common, but incorrect, definition for obtuse angles.

We know that an angle that measures 180° is called a plane angle and by definition, a plane angle is not an obtuse angle.

And the angles larger than 180° (and smaller than 360°) are the reflex angles.

Now, 180° measures more than 90°, so according to the given statement, a plane angle is also an obtuse angle, and that is incorrect. From that, we conclude that the statement is not a good definition.

The balcony of an apartment is 4 feet by 7 feet. On a scale drawing of the apartment, the balcony is 0.8 inch by 1.4 inches, and
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The actual dimensions of the kitchen are 12\ ft by 14\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the scale  of the drawing

To find the scale , remember that is equal to the ratio of  the corresponding dimension in the drawing divided by the corresponding actual dimension

so

\frac{0.8}{4}\frac{in}{ft}=0.2\frac{in}{ft}

step 2

To find the actual dimensions of the kitchen, divide the dimension in the drawing by the scale

so

2.4\ in=2.4/0.2=12\ ft

2.8\ in=2.8/0.2=14\ ft

Here , the ratio <em><u>UV:</u></em><em><u>VW</u></em> and <em><u>UT:TS</u></em> will be in proportion , so ;

{:\implies \quad \sf \dfrac{UV}{VW}=\dfrac{UT}{TS}}

Putting the given values ;

{:\implies \quad \sf \dfrac{18}{36}=\dfrac{UT}{24}}

{:\implies \quad \sf UT=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 24}

{:\implies \quad \bf \therefore \quad \underline{\underline{UT=12 \:\: units}}}
