Short answer: P=0.25
Step One
Find the area of the shaded area
Area = L * W
L = 1.5 feeet
W = 1 foot

Area = 1.5 * 1 = 1.5 ft^2

Step Two
Find the total area
Total Area = L * W
L = 3 feet
W = 2

Area = 3 * 2 = 6 feet^2

Step Three
P = Shaded Area / Total Area
P = 1.5 / 6
P = 1/4

Discussion
This problem should make you a bit uncomfortable. I'm answering it exactly the way it is asked, but if you do hit the shaded area, does it count as a hit in the entire area as well? I would answer the way it is asked, but it is something to look out for in the future.

Based on the information given say whether or not △ABC∼△FED. Explain your reasoning.

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Yes, △ABC ∼ △FED by AA postulate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Two triangles ABC and FED.

m∠A = m∠B

m∠C = m∠A + 30°

m∠E = m∠F = $x$

m∠D = $2x-20$ °.

Now, let m∠A = m∠B = $y$

So, m∠C = m∠A + 30° = $y+30$

Now, sum of all interior angles of a triangle is 180°. Therefore,

m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180

$y+y+y+30=180\\3y=180-30\\3y=150\\y=\frac{150}{3}=50$

Therefore, m∠A = 50°, m∠B = 50° and m∠C = m∠A + 30° = 50 + 30 = 80°.

Now, consider triangle FED,

m∠D+ m∠E + m∠F = 180

$2x-20+x+x=180\\4x=180+20\\4x=200\\x=\frac{200}{4}=50$

Therefore, m∠F = 50°

m∠E = 50° and

m∠D = $2x-20=2(50)-20=100-20=80\°$

So, both the triangles have congruent corresponding angle measures.

m∠A = m∠F = 50°

m∠B = m∠E = 50°

m∠C = m∠D = 80°

Therefore, the two triangles are similar by AA postulate.

June drove 116 miles and 5.8 hours at this rate how far will she drive in 5 hours

Sonbull [250]

First we need to calculate how fast she was going in one hour:
116 / 5.8 = 20

then multiply that by 5 to get how far she will go in 5 hours

20 * 5 = 100

Marco has a jug with 37 1/2 ounces of juice.He wants small cups to give samples of the juice. each cup can hold 2 1/2 ounces of

Rom4ik [11]

Turn both fractions into mixed fractions resulting in 75/2 and 5/2. Then turn them into decimals. 75/2= 37.5 and 5/2= 2.5. Then divide each other 37.5 / 2.5= 15. 15 is your answer. Hope it helped :)
