To answer this question, we just need to subtract the saved cloth from the requested cloth:

\frac{5}{6} - \frac{5}{12}

Since the fractions don't have the same denominator, we have to find the least common denominator.  Luckily, since 6 goes into 12 twice, we can convert \frac{5}{6} into \frac{10}{12}:

\frac{5}{6}( \frac{2}{2}) - \frac{5}{12} = \frac{10}{12} - \frac{5}{12}

Now that the fractions have a common denominator, we can subtract them:

\frac{10}{12} - \frac{5}{12} = \frac{5}{12}

The difference between the requested cloth and the saved cloth is 5/12 of a foot, or 0.4166'.

6. The vertices of ALMN are L(7,4), M(7,16), and
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

(a) LM=12 units, LN=35 units, MN=37 units

(b)8 84 units

(c) 210 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Since points L and M have same x coordinates, it means they are in the same plane. Also, since the Y coordinates of L and N are same, they also lie in the same plane

Length LM=\sqrt {(7-7)^{2}+(16-4)^{2}}=12 units

Length LN=\sqrt {(42-7)^{2}+(4-4)^{2}}=35 units

LengthMN=\sqrt {(42-7)^{2}+(4-16)^{2}}=37 units

Alternatively, since this is a right angle triangle, length MN is found using Pythagoras theorem where

MN=\sqrt {(LN)^{2}+(LM)^{2}}=\sqrt {(12)^{2}+(35)^{2}}=37 units

Therefore, the lengths LM=12 units, LN=35 units and MN=37 units

(b)

Perimeter is the distance all round the figure

P=LM+LN+MN=12 units+35 units+37 units=84 units

(c)

Area of a triangle is given by 0.5bh where b is base and h is height, in this case, b is LN=35 units and h=LM which is 12 units

Therefore, A=0.5*12*35= 210 square units
