Answer:
The total area:
12 units²
Step-by-step explanation:
There are three parts on this shape:
1 big right triangle
1 rectangle
1 small right triangle
area = (4*4)/2 = 16/2 = 8units²
area = 2*1 = 2units²
area = (2*2)/2 = 2units²
8+2+2 = 12 units²
Set up two equations:
1st: P (for Price family) + J (for Jenkins family) = 45 hours
2nd: 20P + 35J = 1200 liters
Rewrite the first equation as P = 45 – J
Replace P in the second equation:
20(45-J) + 35J = 1200
Simplify:
900 -20J + 35J = 1200
900 +15J = 1200
Subtract 900 from both sides:
15J = 300
Divide both sides by 15:
J = 300/15
J = 20
Jenkins used theirs for 20 hours
Price used theirs for 45-20 = 25 hours.
Answer: Choice A) AA postulate; 18
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Work Shown:
The triangles are similar to each other due to the AA (angle angle) postulate. The top angles are overlapping or shared angles. So that's the first pair. The second pair of angles is either bottom pair of angles, from the fact that corresponding angles are congruent. This is only true if the lines are parallel.
Due to the similar triangles, we can set up the proportion and solve for x
8/(8+4) = 12/x
8/12 = 12/x
8*x = 12*12 ... cross multiply
8x = 144
x = 144/8
x = 18
