If 1 inch = 1 foot then 1 foot = 1 inch.
With this, you can make a ratio of 1 foot:1 inch, or 1:1.
Starting with the first dimension, 27 feet, just change the 1 to 27 in the ratio.
27:?
To find how many inches this is in the scale drawing, find how much 1 had to be multiplied by to get to 27. This is 27, since anything times 1 is itself.
Just multiply the other side by 27 as well to get the answer for the first dimension.
1 • 27 = 27
So 27 feet = 27 inches in the scale drawing.
Now do the same for the second dimension.
1:1
20:?
1 • 20 = 20
20:20
The answer is that the scale drawing has dimensions of 27 inches by 20 inches if 1 inch = 1 foot is the scale

Determine whether each of the following triangles is a right-angled triangle
Fantom [35]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if this is a right triangle, use the pythagorean theorem and see if a^2 + b^2 is equal to c^2.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

12^2 + 16^2 = 20^2

Evaluate the exponents.

144 + 256 = 400

Add them together.

400 = 400

Since a^2 and b^2 add up to equal c^2, this is a right triangle.

Parallelogram L O N M is shown. Diagonals are drawn from point L to point N and from point O to point M and intersect at point Q
Fofino [41]

The length of line segment OM is 34 cm.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

  • The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other (cuts equally into two halves).
  • The line segment OM is a diagonal with an intersection point Q.
  • The line segment OQ is equal in length as the line segment QM.

Step 1 :

⇒ length of OQ = length of QM

⇒ 2x + 3 = 3x -4

⇒ 3x-2x =4+3

⇒ x = 7

Step 2 :

Subsitute x = 7 in OQ and QM

⇒ length of OQ = 2x+3

⇒ 2(7) + 3 = 17 cm

⇒ length of QM = 3x-4

⇒ 3(7) - 4 = 17 cm

∴ Length of OM = length of OQ + length of QM

⇒ OM = 17+17 = 34 cm

Which animal traveled at a rate of 1.5 meters per minute?
Fofino [41]

Answer:

The ant

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the meters traveled is going to be more than the amount of minutes because it is 1.5:1 so that narrows it down to the turtle and the ant.

Now we can just take 150% of each and see if they match up.

150% of 5 is 7.5 so therefore it is not the Turtle which means it must be the ant.

Hope this helped ! !

<3

if it did please consider marking brainliest i would appreciate it greatly :)
