Give The measures of the angle that is complementary to the given angle

ivolga24 [154]

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

Sum of two complementary angles is 90°
Let the other angle be x

<h3>So</h3><h3> $\rm \dashrightarrow \: x + 54 = 90 \\ \rm \dashrightarrow \: x = 90 - 54 \\ \rm \dashrightarrow \: x = 36$ </h3>

The two quadrilaterals below are similar. What is the length of EF?

damaskus [11]

EF = 15 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

If the quadrilaterals, ABCD and EFGH are similar their side lengths will be of the same ratio throughout.

Comparing the quadrilaterals, we have AB and EF are similar, BC and FG are similar, CD and GH are similar, DA and HE are similar.

So the ratio of all these sides will be equal.

Step 2:

$\frac{AB}{EF} :\frac{BC}{FG} : \frac{CD}{GH} :\frac{DA}{HE} .$

Of these lengths, we only have the values for AB, BC, CD, DA, GH, HE and need to determine the length of EF. By substituting the known values the ratio becomes;

$\frac{5}{EF} :\frac{4}{12} :\frac{6}{18} .$
