Forgive me if this is wrong. I haven't done stat in a year, but comment if you need clarification!
Answer:
C. 5/16 - inches
Step-by-step explanation:
15/32= 0.467
13/32=0.406
5/16=0.313
3/8=0.375
So the trapezoid has 2 parallel sides making segments AD and BC transversals
Therefore making angle c and angle b add up to 180
(180-3x) + 3x + 180-9x +9x
180 +12x = 360
180= 12x
x= 15
8.454 is 3 tenths more than 8.154
3.625 is 2 and 2 tenths more than 1.425
Place values after the decimal point are tenths, hundredths, thousandths, ten thousandths...so on.
So 3 tenths looks like this 0.30 ⇒ 3 is in the tenths place. When you say 3 tenths more, it is a clue that the operation to be done is addition. thus,
8.154
<u>+ 0.30
</u> 8.454 * in addition or subtraction, the decimal points must be aligned to avoid confusion.
2 and 2 tenths is like this 2.20 ⇒ 1st 2 is in the ones or units place and the 2nd 2 is in the tenths place. Again it states more than so addition must be done.
1.425
<u>+ 2.20</u>
3.625
<u>
</u>
