mid-segment - mid-point on the two sides

smaller triangle w/ mid-segment is similar to the original triangle

the third side of original triangle=mid-segment *2/1

=8

two sides + third side=perimeter=20

two sides=20-8=12

each of the two equal sides=6"

The midsegment is half the length of the base. So the base = 2*4 = 8 in.

Since it is an isosceles triangle, the other two sides are equal in length.

Perimeter = sum of two equal sides + base = 20 in.

2x equal side + 8 = 20

equal side = 12/2 = 6

Each of the equal sides = 6"

It takes 15 electricians 24 days to wire a new housing subdivision. how many days would 18 electricians require to do the same j
Romashka [77]
15 electricians worked for 24 days to the whole job, now, there are 15 of them, so on any given day, each electrician worked one whole day, in 24 days, that one electrician worked 24 days total.

now, there were 15 electricians on any given day though, since each one of them worked the whole day that one day, so the "days work worth" on a day is 15, so the house gets 15days worth of work because of that.

so how many "days worth" did all 15 do on the 24 days, well, 15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15, namely 15 * 24, or 360 days worth of work.

since it takes 360 days worth of work to do the whole wiring, in how many days would 18 electricians do it?   360/18.
