Answer: 15 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Quadrilateral ABCD is similar to quadrilateral EFGH.

If the two shortest sides of quadrilateral EFGH are 6 feet long and 12 feet long.

Let x be the shortest side of quadrilateral ABCD .

The measurement of sides of  quadrilateral ABCD arranged in order :-

60 feet , 40 feet, 30 feet and x feet.

We know that the corresponding sides of two similar polygons are proportional.

⇒ The two shortest sides of quadrilateral ABCD is proportional to the two proportional sides of quadrilateral EFGH.

⇒\dfrac{6}{12}=\dfrac{x}{30}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{30\times6}{12}=15

Hence, the length of the 4th sides of quadrilateral ABCD = 15 feet.

Solve for t.<br><br> -5 − 2t = 3t
allsm [11]
T is equal to -1.
  1. <em>Add 2t to both sides of the equation.</em> -5 = 5t
  2. <em>Divide both sides of the equation by -5.</em> 1 = -t
  3. <em>Multiply both sides of the equation by -1.</em> -1 = t

Suppose Marcy's rectangular laptop measures 12 inches by 9 inches. Find the diagonal measurement from corner A to corner B.
astraxan [27]

Answer:

the diagonal measurement from corner A to corner B=15 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

as we know that the loptop has the shape of a rectangle that means all it's angles are right angles. so we can use the pythogoras theorem to find out the diagonal of the rectangle.

let us denote the diagonal of rectangle by D and the sides of rectangle be denoted by X=12 and Y=9

so by using pythogoras theorem we have,

D^{2} =X^{2} +Y^{2}

D^{2}=225

D=15

Hence the diagonal measurement from corner A to corner B is 15 inches.
