Answer:
Distance between two cities that are 9 inches apart on the map is 11.97 miles (12 miles)
Step-by-step explanation:
As it is given in the question scaled distance on a map is 3 inches = 4 miles.
Now we have to calculate how many miles in 1 inches on the map = 4÷3
= 1.33miles
Now we get the value of 1 inches on the map = 1.33 miles
9 inches = 1.33 × 9 = 11.97 miles ( Probably close to 12 miles if allowing for changing elevations in the distance)
In elementary school we used to refer to this as a ratio problem; two equal ratios with one containing unknown as :
X/C = A/B
X miles / 9 inches = 4 miles / 3 inches
X = 9 (4÷3)
X = 9×1.33
X = 11.97
=12 miles
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
A triangle with angles of 30-60-90 will always have sides that measure in the following proportions:
The side opposite the 30* angle = a
The side opposite the 60* angle = 
The side opposite the 90* angle = 2a
(I used "a" here because your question uses "x" and I don't want to confuse things, but usually people use "x" rather than "a")
They gave us that the hypotenuse (the side opposite the 90* angle) is 10, from there we can figure out the other sides:
Since the side opposite 90* is 2a, and 2a = 10, divide 10 by 2 and you get a = 5.
Once we know what "a" is, we can fill in the rest:
30* = 5
60* = 
90* = 10
