Bryan purchases two triangular wall shelves. The sides of each shelf are 8 inches, 10 inches, and 12 inches. He's trying to buil

d a similar, larger triangular shelf to place between the two smaller shelves. Which of the dimensions can Bryan use for the larger shelf so that it is similar to the ones he purchased? Justify why the three triangles are similar.
A) 4 inches, 5 inches, and 6 inches; All of the side lengths of the smaller triangles have been multiplied by 1/2, which guarantees side-side-side similarity.

B) 16 inches, 20 inches, and 24 inches; All of the side lengths of the smaller triangles have been multiplied by 2, which guarantees side-side-side similarity.

C) 16 inches, 20 inches, and 24 inches; All of the side lengths of the smaller triangles have been multiplied by 2, which guarantees side-angle-side similarity.

D) 16 inches, 20 inches, and 24 inches; All of the side lengths of the smaller triangles have been multiplied by 2, which guarantees angle-angle-side similarity.

The correct answer is letter B) 16 inches, 20 inches, and 24 inches; All of the side lengths of the smaller triangles have been multiplied by 2, which guarantees side-side-side similarity. Similar angles shows congruence when their sides are proportional.

Answer:

A. The area is 78.54m^2

B. She needs to cover 1661.9 square feet of tiles for the base of the swimming pool

Step-by-step explanation:

Question A:

Let us assume that the leash is pegged to the ground using a stake. as a result, the dog can move around the stake. The path that the motion of the dog would trace is a circle, and the radius of the circle will be the length of the leash.

Since we know this, we can easily find the area of the circle using \pi r^2

Area of the circle = \pi \times 5 \times 5 = 78.54m^2

Question B

Dulce wants to cover the whole surface area of the floor of the circular swimming pool with tiles.

We already know that the swimming pool is circular, hence, the surface area of the base of the swimming pool will be the same as the area of a circle, with the same radius.

The area of the circle can be calculated using \pi r^2

Area of circle = \pi \times 23 \times 23 = 1661.9ft^2
