Use cross multiplication. 42 inches is your 100%. your fraction would be 42/100
then, to find by what percent it has increased, since 47 is your new height, and you are trying to find the percentage for that, the fraction will be 47/X.

42          47 
-----       -----
100         X

(100 * 47) / 42 = X

100 multiplied by 47, then divided by 42, the result is X

your answer should be 111%. Subtract 100 from 111, to get the increased percent.

Answer: 11%

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule is if 2 chords intersect inside a circle, then the measure of the angle formed is one half the um of the measure of the arcs intercepted by the angle and its vertical angle. In other words, angle TSU = 1/2(arc TU + arc MV):

angle TSU = 1/2(90 + 80) and

angle TSU = 1/2(170) and

angle TSU = 85
