Answer:
ΔABC ~ ΔDEC
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : DE║AB
Statements Reasons
1). DE║AB 1). Given
2). ∠CDE ≅ ∠CAB 2). Corresponding angles
[Since DE║AB and AC is the transverse]
3). ∠CED ≅ ∠CBA 3). Corresponding angles
[Since DE║AB and BC is the transverse]
4). ΔABC ~ ΔDEC 4). By AA property of similarity
Hence ΔABC is similar to ΔDEC.
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write a proportion to determine
42 people 6 people
---------------- = ----------------
14 boats x boats
Using cross products
42x = 6*14
42x =84
Divide each side by 42
42x/42 = 84/42
x = 2
They will need 2 boats
First one is c and the second im not sure on
