Answer:
CD = √11 and CE = √11
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that m∠D is 45° (by using the sum of interior angles in a triangle) so therefore, ΔDCE is a 45 - 45 - 90 triangle (the 45, 45, and 90 refer to the angle measures). The ratio of sides in a 45 - 45 - 90 triangle is 1 : 1 : √2 where the 1s are the sides and the √2 is the hypotenuse. We need to solve for x in x : x : √22. If you notice that √22 = √2 * √11, we can use this to find x, therefore, x = 1 * √11 = √11 so CD = √11 and CE = √11.
Answer:
C) Between 9 and 13
Step-by-step explanation:
If 40% is 5 gallons, then 20% is 2.5 gallons
If you multiply both by 5, you get 12.5, which is between 9 and 13
Sorry for my weird way of math
Answer: 35
Step-by-step explanation: The third side can be between the smallest side (8 units) and the two sides combined (25 + 8 = 32)
The third side can be anywhere from 8 - 32
