If two triangles are similar then the corresponding sides are in proportion. Thus,

AB / AU = BC / UV = AC / AV

AB / (20x+108) = 703 / 444

Where AB is equivalent to:

AB = AU + UB

AB = 20x + 108 + 273

AB = 20x + 381

Therefore going back to the first equation:

(20x + 381) / (20x + 108) = 703/444

444 (20x + 381) = 703 (20x + 108)

8880x + 169164 = 14060x + 75924

14060x - 8880x = 169164 – 75924

5180 x = 93240

x = 93240 / 5180

Find the area of the composite figure and round the nearest tenth
Monica [59]

Answer:

The area of the composite figure is 1360 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you should split up the composite figure into separate shapes.

So to find area of the triangle all the way on the left, you multiply base x height then divide by 2.

<u>30 x 34 = 1020 ÷ 2 = 520.</u>

Then, moving on to next shape, we can break up the trapezoid into a rectangle and a triangle.

To find area of the rectangle you multiply length x width.

<u>16 x 30 = 480.</u>

Finally, we have the last triangle right above the rectangle. Keep in mind that the rectangle does not have a length of 40!

You have to subtract 40 - 16 which equals 24.

<u>30 x 24 = 720 ÷ 2 = 360.</u>

Now that we have all 3 numbers, we simply add them all together and you will get an answer of 1360 ft.

Remember to label your answer!

Please help<br> I will give 100 points
horsena [70]

Answer:

FGE = 180 - (14 + 78)°

= 88°

so angle GEC = 88°

4x + 88 = 180

4x = 180 - 88

4x = 92

x = 92/4

= 23

According to Cavalieri’s Principle, if all of the following have the same height, which pair would NOT have the same volume? Exp
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Pair 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the volumes to be the same the base areas must also be the same.

For Pair 2 the areas are 25π and 24π while the other 2 pairs have both base areas = 25π.
