Yes
For example: Cut an apple into 9ths and another one into 8ths. Which has a bigger slice?
The mid point of DE is (3,-1)
This can be found with Pythagorean Theorem
The length of “a” is 6. The length of “b” is 4.
The length of DE is ≈ 7.21. The midpoint of this value is found at coordinates (3,-1)
X =b b b and what is an answer is really is coy plane is x g y and yams ten
This is tricky. Fasten your seat belt. It's going to be a boompy ride.
If it's a 12-hour clock (doesn't show AM or PM), then it has to gain
12 hours in order to appear correct again.
How many times must it gain 3 minutes in order to add up to 12 hours ?
(12 hours) x (60 minutes/hour) / (3 minutes) = 240 times
It has to gain 3 minutes 240 times, in order for the hands to be in the correct positions again. Each of those times takes 1 hour. So the job will be complete in 240 hours = <em>10 days .</em>
Check:
In <u>10</u> days, there are <u>240</u> hours.
The clock gains <u>3</u> minutes every hour ==> <u>720</u> minutes in 240 hours.
In 720 minutes, there are 720/60 = <u>12 hours</u> yay !
_________________________________
If you are on a military base and your clocks have 24-hour faces,
then at the same rate of gaining, one of them would take 20 days
to appear to be correct again.

Note:
It doesn't have to be an analog clock. Cheap digital clocks can
gain or lose time too (if they run on a battery and don't reference
their rate to the 60 Hz power that they're plugged into).
Answer:
In two similar triangles, the ratio of their areas is the square of the ratio of their sides. Try this The two triangles below are similar. Drag any orange dot at P,Q,R. Note the ratio of the two corresponding sides and the ratio of the areas.
