Answer:

3:4

Step-by-step explanation:

Before we start to deal with the ratio, we need all lengths in the same units.

The width is 18 inches.

The height is 2 feet.

Let's convert the height to inches. Then we will have both dimensions in the same units, inches.

2 ft * (12 in.)/ft = 24 in.

Now we have:

width = 18 in.

height = 24 in.

ratio of width to height = 18 in. to 24 in. = 18/24 = 3/4 = 3:4

Because you know the area and that the shape is a square... if the side length is "s"... to find "s" you would say...

s²=1.69

Take the root of both sides and...

s=1.3 km

In order to overlook someone's faults, it takes love and an understanding that you are not perfect.
When you love someone, you tend not to see that person's flaws, or even if you do see them, you believe those flaws are negligible. Once you understand that you yourself are not perfect (as any other human being), it will be easier for you to overlook someone else's faults.

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\sqrt{25-10\sqrt3+3}=5-\sqrt3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sqrt{25-10\sqrt3+3}=(*)\\\\25=5^2\\3=(\sqrt3)^2\\10\sqrt3=(2)(5)(\sqrt3)\\\\(*)=\sqrt{5^2-(2)(5)(\sqrt3)+(\sqrt3)^2}\\\\\text{use}\ (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2\\\\=\sqrt{(5-\sqrt3)^2}\\\\\text{use}\ \sqrt{a^2}=|a|\\\\=|5-\sqrt3|=5-\sqrt3\\\\^{\text{because}\ 5>\sqrt3\to5-\sqrt3>0}$
