Step-by-step explanation:
can't really use the Pythagorean because you don't know this is a right triangle.
use the fact that they are similar
so
3/6 = x/12 where x is FE
cross multiply
6x = 36 therefore FE = 6
then 6/12 = y/9 where y is FD
cross multiply
12y = 54 = 54/12 therefore FD = 4.5
Answer:10
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 12.75 by 1.25
you get 10.2
She can cut 10 strings but has 0.2 string leftover

Answer: C) increase from 45 degrees to 50 degrees</h3>
===============================================
Explanation:
Let's calculate the angle B based off the arcs CDF and GHJ
B = (far arc - near arc)/2
B = (arc CDF - arc GHJ)/2
B = (130 - 40)/2
B = 90/2
B = 45
----------
Now let's change GHJ to 30 degrees, while keeping the other arc the same.
B = (far arc - near arc)/2
B = (arc CDF - arc GHJ)/2
B = (130 - 30)/2
B = 100/2
B = 50
Angle B has increased from 45 degrees to 50 degrees.
