Alright! So, we know that in his drawing the living room is 2 millimeters long, and in reality it is 10 meters long. So, to find out how much 1 millimeter is we divide 10 by 2.
[10 ÷ 2] = 5.
One millimeter is 5 meters in reality.
The ratio is 1:5
L +2w = 500
a = lw
a) l = 500 -2w
.. a = (500 -2w)*w
b) The zeros of the above equation are w=0, w=250. The vertex of this quadratic is on the line of symmetry, halftway between the zeros, at w=125 ft.
c) a = (500 -2*125)*125 = 31,250 . . . . square feet
M∠ADB + m∠BDC = m∠ADC [<span>angle addition postulate]
x + x + 10 = 60
2x + 10 = 60
2x = 60 - 10
2x = 50
x = 50/2
x = 25
a
m</span>∠ADB = x = 25°
b
m∠BDC = x + 10 = 25 + 10 = 35°
