Answer:

Ratio of the area = 4 : 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : A rectangle has a length of 6 cm and a width of 3 cm.Each side is doubled in length.

To find : What is the ratio of the areas of the two rectangles.

Solution : Length = 6 cm.

Width = 3 cm .

Area 1 = length * width .

Area = 6 * 3

Area 1 = 18 cm².

If the each side is double :

Length = 12 cm .

Width = 6 cm .

Area 2 = 12 * 6 .

Area 2  = 72 cm².

Ratio of the area = \frac{Area2}{Area1}.

Ratio of the area = \frac{72}{18}.

Ratio of the area = 4 : 1

Therefore, Ratio of the area = 4 : 1

Area  1 = 6 x 3 = 18

Area 2 = 12 x 6 = 72

Ratio = 18 : 72

Ratio = 1 : 4

Why can you use Linear Pairs and Vertical Angles to prove lines are parallel?
natta225 [31]

Answer:

The reason why linear pairs and vertical angles are used to prove lines are parallel is because they area transversal drawn through the parallel lines will form angles on each of the two parallel lines including;

1) Supplementary linear pairs  and

2) Vertical angles

3) Alternate angles

Given that either;

a) The corresponding angles that form the linear pairs are congruent

b) The corresponding vertically opposite angles are congruent

c) The corresponding alternate angles are congruent, we have;

The two lines are said to be parallel.

Nine yards of ribbon are cut into 8 equal pieces what is the length of each piece of ribbon. Write a division expression to repr
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

x=\frac{9}{8}\ yards

x=1.125\ yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call x the length of each piece in yards

If the ribbon is cut into 8 equal pieces then the sum of the pieces is:

x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x=8x

Then:

8x=9\ yards

Now we solve the equation for x

8x=9\ yards

Divide both sides of equality by 8

\frac{8}{8}x=\frac{9}{8}\ yards

x=\frac{9}{8}\ yards

So the length of each piece is \frac{9}{8} of a yard.

This is: 1.125 yards
