*The side with the middle length is 12cm, therefore BC must be 12 cm

------------------------------------------------------------<span>
Ratio 
------------------------</span>---------------------------------<span>--
BC:AC:AB
  4 : 3 : 5

</span>-----------------------------------------------------------
<span>Find 1 share
</span>-----------------------------------------------------------<span>
Given that BC = 12 cm
4 shares = 12 cm
1 share = 12 ÷ 4 = 3cm

</span>-----------------------------------------------------------
Find AC (4 shares)
-----------------------------------------------------------<span>
3 shares = 3 x 3 = 9 cm
BC = 9cm

</span>-----------------------------------------------------------
<span>Find AB (5 shares)
</span>-----------------------------------------------------------<span>
5 shares = 5 x 3 = 15cm
AB = 15cm

</span>------------------------------------------------------------
Length
-----------------------------------------------------------
   BC   :  AC   :  AB
12cm  :  9cm : 15cm<span>

---------------------------------</span>---------------------------------<span>
Perimeter
</span>------------------------------------------------------------------
<span>12 + 9 + 15 = 36cm

</span>------------------------------------------------------------------
<span>Answer: The perimeter is 36cm
</span>------------------------------------------------------------------<span>

</span>------------------------------------------------------------------
<span>Area
</span>------------------------------------------------------------------
1/2 x 9 x 12 = 54cm²<span>

</span>------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Area = 54cm²
------------------------------------------------------------------<span>

Given that the biggest ratio is AB
</span>⇒AB is the hypotenuse
AB = 15 cm

------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Hypotenuse = AB = 15cm

Tariq lives in Palm Beach, Florida, and purchased a house for $250,000. The amount of millage for property tax is 11.8. What is
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

$29500

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Tariq lives in Palm Beach, Florida, and purchased a house for $250,000. The amount of millage for property tax is 11.8%. We are asked to find the amount of property tax that Tariq paid.

To find the amount of property tax paid by Tariq, we need to calculate 11.8% of $250,000.

\text{Amount of property tax paid by Tariq}=\$250,000\times \frac{11.8}{100}

\text{Amount of property tax paid by Tariq}=\$2500\times 11.8

\text{Amount of property tax paid by Tariq}=\$29,500

Therefore, Tariq paid an amount of $29500 in tax.
