Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the side length for the octagon having 9m² as area = x
Side length for the octagon having area of 25m² = y.
Thus:
(area of similar polygons theorem)
The scale factor of their sides would be 
. Which is:
Scale factor of their sides =
A)
Triangle ABX
Height = 8m
Base = 26-11 m
Find length by AB^2 = 15^2 + 8^2
b) Find AC by using AB as Height and BC as base
AC^2 = AB ^2 + BC ^2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The length can be found by setting up a proportion. If the width is reduced by some ratio, then the length will share the same ratio.
3 / 8 = x / 10 Multiply both sides by 10.
3 * 10 / 8 = x Multiply first
30/8 = x Divide next. You don't need to do it in this order.
3 6/8 Simplify
3 3/4 Give another choice
3.75
The length = 3.75 inches
If none of these are correct, please leave a note with your choices.
