Answer: \dfrac{11}{20} yards

Step-by-step explanation:

By considering the given information , we have

The total initial length of ribbon = \dfrac{9}{10} yards

The length of ribbon she gave to her friend = \dfrac{7}{20} yards

The length of ribbon she has left = Initial length - Length she gave

=\dfrac{9}{10}-\dfrac{7}{20}

=\dfrac{9\times2}{10\times2}-\dfrac{7}{20} [Multiply 2 on numerator and denominator to the first fraction to make both fractions like.]

=\dfrac{18}{20}-\dfrac{7}{20}

=\dfrac{18-7}{20}=\dfrac{11}{20}

hence, the length of ribbon she has left = \dfrac{11}{20} yards

rewrite fraction s to have common denominator:

9/10 = 18/20

 now subtract:

18/20 - 7/20 = 11/20 left

Find the area of a rhombus with side length 6 and an interior angle with measure $120^\circ$.
Serhud [2]

Answer:

The area of a rhombus is 18\sqrt{3} square units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Side length of rhombus = 6 units.

Interior angle of rhombus = 120°

another Interior angle of rhombus = 180°-120° = 60°.

Draw an altitude.

In a right angled triangle

\sin \theta=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

\sin (60)=\frac{h}{6}

\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=\frac{h}{6}

Multiply both sides by 6.

3\sqrt{3}=h

The height of the rhombus is 3\sqrt{3}.

Area of a rhombus is

Area=base\times height

Area=6\times 3\sqrt{3}

Area=18\sqrt{3}

Therefore, the area of a rhombus is 18\sqrt{3} square units.

PLEASE HELP QUESTION IN PICTURE

Answer:

b = 55

d = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

Part B:

1. We can see that m∠C (25 degrees), the angle with 100 degrees, and ∠B are adjacent angles that add up to 180 degrees.

  • This means that b + 25 + 100 = 180

2. (Solving equation above)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

  • b + (25+100)=180
  • b + 125 = 180

Step 2: Subtract 125 from both sides.

  • b + 125 - 125 = 180 - 125
  • b = 55

Therefore, b = 55.

Part D:

1. The exterior angle theorem states that the exterior angle of a triangle is congruent to the sum of the two opposing interior angles.

  • This means that 110 = d + 55

2. (Solving)

Step 1: Subtract 55 from both sides.

  • 110-55 = d + 55-55
  • 55 = d

Therefore, d = 55.
