We will use ratio and proportion between the inclined sides with its corresponding horizontal bases. Then we could determine for the value of segment AQ.

PA/SB = AQ/BR
32/30 = AQ/24
AQ = 25.6 yd

Since what is asked is segment PQ,
PQ = PA + AQ
PQ = 32 + 25.6
PQ = 57.6 yards

Snowcat [4.5K]
If you interpret the question as is, the answer is in the thousands, which is not listed. The last part of the question should read 'the number of new cases doubled from those newly identified cases from the day prior. The question is very poorly phrased.

Day 1 : 5
Day 2: 5 + 10
Day 3: 15 + 20
Day 4: 35 + 40
Day 5: 75 + 80
Day 6: 155 + 160

Which is 315 at the end of 6th day

Really need help with math question.

The opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral add up to 180 degrees , so 

2x + 3 + 4x + 3 = 180
6x = 180 - 6

6x = 174
x = 29  

so m<C = 2(29) + 1 = 59 degrees

I really don't get this
diamong [38]
Replace the CIRCLES by A and the SQUARES by B:

1) A + B = 14 And

2) A - B = 2

Add 1) + 2)

A+B   =14
A-B    = 2
------   ----
2A+0 = 16 then A = 16/2 = 8. If A = 8, then B = 6

So the CIRCLE = 8  and the SQUARE = 6

schepotkina [342]
I think its perimeter so you do 10x2=20 and 20x2=40 and add 20+40 to get 60 so the answer is 60 cause it says "fencing" which is the outer border

therefore answer is 60 feet
