Midsegment = 1/2(base1 + base2)

EF = 1/2(AB + CD)

EF = 1/2(20 + 12)

EF = 1/2(32)

EF = 16

Answer

EF = 16

Answer:

The length of the mid-segment EF is 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this exercise the main idea is to know the formula for the mid-segment of a trapezoid. This formula should be well known because it is used to find the area of a trapezoid.

If we denote the mid-segment of a trapezoid as m, the larger basis as B and the smaller basis as b, the formula states:

m = \frac{B+b}{2}.

In this particular exercise m=EF, B=AB and b=DC.

Thus,

EF = \frac{DC + AB}{2} = \frac{20+12}{2} = \frac{32}{2} = 16.

Find the unknown digit to make each statement true <br> 3.59 &gt; 3.5 1 &gt;3.572
Softa [21]

We are given statement 3.59 > 3.5__1 >3.572.

We have a blank space in between 5 and 1 in the middle number given.

Given statement ccan be read as :

3.59 is greater than 3.5__1 is greater than 3.572.

So, we need to check a number that is less than 3.59 but less than 3.572.

The hundredth place of 3.59 number is 9 and

hundredth place of 3.572 number is 7.

So, we need to find a number between 7 and 9.

8 is the number in between 7 and 9.

So, the known digit can be replaced by 8 to make the statement true.

And final statement is 3.59 > 3.581 >3.572.
