Answer:
30 trees
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the policy:
8 trees are cut down 48 trees will be planted
If homeowner is going to cut down five trees on his property how many trees will be planted
Since :
8 trees cut down = 48 planted
5 trees cut down = X
Cross multiply :
8 * X = 48 * 5
8X = 240
X = 240/8
X = 30
Hence, 30 trees will need to be planted
Answer: Choice A) Triangle ABC is similar to triangle ACD by AA
AA stands for Angle Angle. Specifically it means we need 2 pairs of congruent angles between the two triangles in order to prove the triangles similar. Your book might write "AA similarity" instead of simply "AA".
For triangles ABC and ACD, we have the first pair of angles being A = A (angle A shows up twice each in the first slot). The second pair of congruent angles would be the right angles for triangle ABC and ACD, which are angles C and D respectively.
We can't use AAS because we don't know any information about the sides of the triangle.
When you divide 972 by 10.8 you get the answer of 90. Hope this helps :)
