M-4=84.
The equation is correct because the maple tree is 4 feet shorter than the elm tree. M represent the maple tree, so you take away four to find the elm.
The height of the maple tree is 88 feet.
Answer:
<h2> 65km</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given
we are told that the distance is 3.25cm on the map
the scale is 1cm to represent 20km
Required
the actual distance
Step two
if 1cm represent 20km
then 3.25cm will represent x km
cross multiply we have
x=2.35*20
x= 65km
Hence, the actual distance between these two cities in kilometers 65km
Answer:
a) 8cm
b) 19.8cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The key to these types of questions is to keep proportions in mind.
To solve the first question, you want to find the proportion of the smaller triangle to the bigger triangle. The length of AE is 6cm, but the length of AD is (6+4) = 10cm. So the proportion of the bigger triangle to the smaller triangle is 10/6. So to find the lengths of the sides of the bigger triangle, we want to keep this number in mind.
The BE side is parallel to CD, so we have to use length of BE multiplied by the proportion in order to get the length of CD.
CD = 4.8 * (10/6) = 8
CD = 8cm
For the second question, you use the same concept to find all the other side lengths. The only one you need left for the shape EBCD is side BC. Do the same thing you did before, take the length of the side of the smaller triangle that corresponds with side AC on the bigger triangle. In this case, it's AB, which is 4.5cm. Multiply this by 10/6 to get AC.
AC = 4.5 * (10/6) = 7.5
AC = 7.5
But we're not done. We just found the length of AC, but we need the length of BC to calculate the perimeter. To do this, we want to take the length of AC - the length of AB.
7.5 - 4.5 = 3
So the length of BC is 3cm. Now, to find the perimeter, just add all the sides of EBCD together.
4.8 + 4 + 8 + 3 = 19.8cm.
Hope this helps.
I would say B but I can't see the question very well.
