Given the scale is 1 cm to 25 km.

We have to find the length of the trail from centimeter to the nearest tenth of kilometer.

Let's take the length of the trail be x km.

The length of the trail given 7.2 cm. We will have to find the length in km.

We have to set it up as a proportion. So we can write the proportion as,

$\frac{1}{25} = \frac{7.2}{x}$

We have to cross multiply first. We will get,

$(1)(x) = (7.2)(25)$

$x= (7.2)(25)$

$x = 180$

So we have got the required length of the train in kilometer.

The actual length of the trail = 180km.

1/25 = 7.2/x.....1 cm to 25 km = 7.2 cm to x km
cross multiply
(1)(x) = (7.2)(25)
x = 180 km <===

Describe at least two differences between constructing an inscribed regular hexagon and constructing an inscribed square.

liberstina [14]

Correct answer is A.

The diameter of the circle is used for the square construction, but the radius of the circle is used for the regular hexagon construction.

<h3>How to calculate the diameter?</h3>

If you know the radius of the circle, multiply by 2 to get the diameter. The radius is the distance from the center of the circle to the edge. For example, if the radius of a circle is 4 cm, then the diameter is 4 cm x 2 = 8 cm. If you know the circumference of the circle, divide by π to get the diameter.

<h3>Briefing:</h3>

The diameter of the circle is used for the square construction, but the radius of the circle is used for the regular hexagon construction which is A.

The diameter of the circle is used for the square as l=2r therefore corresponds to the diameter, while for a hexagon r=r being the radius of the circle.

RHOMBUS The diagonals of rhombus ABCD intersect at E. Given that

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

<u>Question 11:</u>

$\angle DAC = 53^\circ$

$\angle AED = 90^\circ$

$\angle ADC = 74$

$DB = 16$

$AE = 6.03$

$AC = 12.06$

<u>Question 12:</u>

$\triangle ABD$ , $\triangle BAC$ , $\triangle CDA$ and $\triangle DAB$

<u>Question 13: </u>

AC and BD are perpendicular lines, and they are diagonals

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Question 11</u>

Given

$\angle BAC = 53^\circ$

$DE = 8$

See attachment for Rhombus

Required

Determine the indicated sides

Solving (a): $\angle DAC$

Diagonal CA divides $\angle DAB$ into 2 equal angles

i.e

$\angle DAC = \angle BAC$

So:

$\angle DAC = 53^\circ$

Solving (b): $\angle AED$

The angles at E is 90 degrees because diagonals AC and BD meet at a perpendicular.

So:

$\angle AED = 90^\circ$

Solving (c): $\angle ADC$

First, we calculate $\angle ADE$ , considering $\triangle ADE$ :

$\angle ADE + \angle AED + \angle DAC = 180$

$\angle ADE + 90 + 53 = 180$

$\angle ADE + 143 = 180$

$\angle ADE = -143 + 180$

$\angle ADE = 37$

To calculate $\angle ADC$ , we have:

$\angle ADC = 2*\angle ADE$

$\angle ADC = 2* 37$

$\angle ADC = 74$

Solving (d): $DB$

From the rhombus

$DB = DE +EB$

Where

$DE =EB$

So:

$DB = 8 + 8$

$DB = 16$

Solving (e): $AE$

To do this we consider $\triangle ADE$

Using the tan formula

$tan(\angle ADE) = \frac{AE}{DE}$

$\angle ADE = 37$ and $DE = 8$

So:

$\tan(37) = \frac{AE}{8}$

$AE = 8 * \tan(37)$

$AE = 6.03$

Solving (f): $AC$

This is calculated as:

$AC = AE + EC$

Where

$AE = EC$

$AC = 6.03 +6.03$

$AC = 12.06$

<u>Question 12: Isosceles Triangle</u>

In the rhombus, all 4 sides are equal;

So, the isosceles triangle are:

$\triangle ABD$ , $\triangle BAC$ , $\triangle CDA$ and $\triangle DAB$

<u>Question 13: </u>

AC and BD are perpendicular lines, and they are diagonals

The 2 in 1,703,298 has _______________ the value of the 2 in 3,932,574.

Dovator [93]

Answer:

1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of 2 in 1,703,298 is 200.

The value of 2 in 3,932,574 is 2,000.

2,000 divided by 200 is 10.

Therefore, the 2 in 1,703,298 has 1/10 the value of the 2 in 3,932,574.
