We can assume the floor is a rectangle. Cut the triangle diagonally in half.
The rectangles has all right angles and is composed of two right triangles.
Use the Pythagorean formula and solve for the length of the hypotenuse to find the distance between two the opposite corners. I labelled two of the sides a and b.
The formula is: a² + b² = c² , where c is the distance. Substitute the side lengths a and b and solve for c.
a² + b² = c²
15² + 8² = c²
Simplify:
225 + 64 = c²
c² = 289
c = √289
c = 17
The distance between two opposite corners on the floor is 17 metres.
In △BAH and △CAK
AB = AC (Given congruent sides of triangle)
m∠BAK = m∠CAH ( Given congruent angles)
AH = AK (Given congruent sides of triangle)
Therefore, triangle △BAH congruent to triangle △CAK.
△BAH ≅ <u>△CAK </u>by (<u>Side Angle Sngle or SAS triangle congruency postulate</u>).
Therefore, m∠K = m∠H (Congurent parts of the congruent triangles are congruent).
Answer:
18.22 is the circumference
hope this helps
have a good day :)
Step-by-step explanation:
Tony is dividing the larger bag of bird seeds into 6 smaller bags equally. So, we will divide by 6.
11.16 / 6 = 1.86
So, each smaller bag of bird seeds will weigh 1.86.
