Significant figures tells us that about how may digits we can count on to be precise given the uncertainty in our calculations or data measurements.

Since, one inch  = 2.54 cm.

This is equivalent as saying that 1.0000000.. inch = 2.540000... cm.

Since the inch to cm conversion doesn't add any uncertainty, so we are free to keep any and all the significant figures.

Since, being an exact number, it has an unlimited number of significant figures and thus when we convert inch to cm we multiply two exact quantities together. Therefore, it will have infinite number of significant figures.

11) Since the triangle has a pair of congruent base angles, it is an isosceles triangle which means that the two pairs of legs are congruent.

Make them equal to each other in an equation.

5x = x + 20

Subtract x from both sides.

4x = 20

Divide both sides by 4.

x = 5

12) The two legs are congruent so that means the base angles must be congruent. First find the measure of the base angles. Create an equation:

x + x + 50 = 180

Combine like terms.

2x + 50 = 180

Subtract 50 from both sides.

2x = 130

Divide both sides by 2.

x = 65

Now make the base angle plus x equal 180, because they form a straight line.

65 + x = 180

Subtract 65 from both sides.

x = 115

13) You know the vertex angle (top angle) is 90 degrees because it is supplementary to a right angle. The triangle is isosceles because the two legs are congruent, so make the base angles plus 90 add up to 180 in an equation.

x + x + 90 = 180

Combine like terms.

2x + 90 = 180

Subtract 90 from both sides.

2x = 90

Divide both sides by 2.

x = 45

Rudik [331]

Answer: 1620

Step-by-step explanation: This is for a parallelogram you would multiple 6 base x's 4.5 height= 27 area for each diamond.

He's using 60 tiles. Multiple the area of 1 tile which is 27 by 60 wooden tiles to find the area of the parallelogram. 27 multipled by 60 tiles= 1620 inches squared
