PEMDAS is very helpful. Without pemdas, people solve equations differently. For example, 2 + 3 * 2. Using pemdas, we knoow 2 + 3 * 2 = 8
However, without pemdas, someone could do 2 + 3, which is 5, then *2. Which would get 10.
PEMDAS is important to keep order.
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
A tangent is a line which touches a circle at one point. The angle between a tangent and a circle is 90°.
The two tangent theorem states that tangent that meet at the same point are equal in length.
Therefore:
CD = c + d
but c = 5.1, hence:
CD = 5.1 + d
12.1 = 5.1 + d
d = 7
AD = a + d; but AD = 12.2, d = 7
12.2 = a + 7
a = 5.2
AB = a + b; but b = 3.3
AB = 5.2 + 3.3 = 8.5
BC = b + c = 3.3 + 5.1 = 8.4
Perimeter of ABCD = AB + BC + CD + AD = 8.5 + 8.4 + 12.1 + 12.2 = 41.2
a dilation with a scale factor of 4, is multiplication by 4 each side, so we need the measure of the side CD and then multiply by 4 to find C'D'
we can notice tht length of CD, is 3 squares,multiplying by 4 the new length is 3x4= 1 2 squares
