Caution
I just finished doing this exact same problem. In nearly 4000 answers, I don't think that's ever happened. It's a great problem. Study it carefully but make sure you handle with care. Most area questions don't work this way.
Remark:
This problem will puzzle you greatly until you look at the diagram carefully.
Draw the diagram so that AC is on the horizontal and make it the longest line. This problem does not require that you have an accurate diagram.
Eyeball P so that it looks like it divides AC in such a way that PC is 2 units and AP is about 3 units. From B draw a line that is Perpendicular to AC. It shouldn't meet P otherwise you will get confused. Where the line from B hits AC label that point D. BD is perpendicular to AC.
What you need to know
BD is the height of both triangles. What does that mean? In practical terms it means that you can call the ratio of the areas 3/2
Ratio
Triangle ABP: Triangle BPC = x/14
3:2 = x:14 Change to a proportion
3/2 = x/14 Cross multiply
3*14 = 2x Combine
42 = 2x Divide by 2
42/2 = x Divide
21 = x
Conclusion One
The area of ABP = 21 square units.
Conclusion Two
Area ABC = Area ABP + Area CBP
Area ABC = 21 + 14 = 35
Nice problem. Be careful how you treat it. Usually these kind of ratio problems don't work this way.
Answer:
2) 360 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all we have to verify that the base triangle is a right triangle
For this we use Pythagoras
h² = l1² + l2²
13² = 12² + 5²
169 = 144 + 25
169 = 169
Equality is fulfilled by what is a right triangle
Now we need to calculate the area of the triangle
a = (12 in * 5 in) / 2
a = 60in² / 2
a = 30in²
Now we have to calculate the 3 areas of the rectangles
a1 = 10in * 13 in
a1 = 130in²
a2 = 10 in * 12 in
a2 = 120in²
a3 = 10 in * 5 in
a3 = 50in²
Now we must add all the calculated areas and the triangle 2 times
a1 + a2 + a3 + 2a =
130in² + 120in² + 50in² + 2 * 30in²
360in²
The surface area of the prism is 360in²

You add 25 and 22 and it adds up to 47 so the answer is 47
Answer:
3 : 1
Step-by-step explanation:
ratio = teeth on front sprocket : teeth on rear sprocket
= 36 : 12 ( divide both parts of the ratio by 12 )
= 3 : 1 ← in simplest form
