If ΔWXY is ≅ to ΔPQR, WX=5n-2 and PQ=63 what is n?

1 answer:

3 0

If the two triangles are congruent, then WX=PQ, because they are corresponding(by the order of the letters WXY and PQR). So if they are congruent, then we can say 5n-2=63, by the transitive property. The rest of the problem only requires Pemdas. Add 2 to both sides (5n=65), divide both sides by 5 (n=13), and you find that n=13.

Answer:

32,000 square feet gross area and 28,750 square feet net area

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a rectangular site measures 125 feet (frontage) by 256 feet (depth), of which 26 feet is in the public right of way. We have to find the the gross and net site area.

As, 26 feet width is in the public right of way which excluded in the net area but included in gross area.

For gross area,

Length=125 feet

Width=256 feet

$Area=Length\times width=125\times 256=32000 square feet$
