Answer:

x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Step 1: Identify the similar triangles</em>

Triangle DQC and triangle DBR are similar

<em>Step 2: Identify the parallel lines</em>

QC is parallel to BR

<em>Step 3: Find x</em>

DQ/QB = DC/CR

40/24 = x/15

x = 25

Answer: x=25

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the value of "x", you can set up de following proportion:

\frac{BQ+QD}{QD}=\frac{RC+CD}{CD}\\\\\frac{24+40}{40}=\frac{15+x}{x}

Now, the final step is to solve for "x" to find its value.

Therefore, its value is the following:

1.6=\frac{15+x}{x}\\\\1.6x=x+15\\\\1.6x-x=15\\\\0.6x=15\\\\x=\frac{15}{0.6}\\\\x=25

What is the circumference of quadrilateral ABED in cm?
Natasha2012 [34]

the perimeter of quadrilateral ABED is 36.

<h3 /><h3>What is circumference?</h3>

A circumference is the total distance around a plane shape. Another name for circumference is called perimeter

To calculate the circumference of the quadrilateral, we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • Peri. of ABED = /AB/+/BE/+/ED/+/DA/............. Equation 1

From the Diagram,

Given:

  • /AB/ = /DC/ = 8 cm,
  • /BE/ = 2×/DA/ = 2×6 = 12 cm
  • /ED/ = √(6²+8²) = √(36+64) = √100 = 10 cm
  • /DA/ = 6 cm

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • Peri. of quadrilateral ABED = 8+12+10+6
  • Peri. of quadrilateral ABED  = 36 cm

Hence, the perimeter of quadrilateral ABED is 36.

The missing angle of the given triangle  is 59°.

What is vertically opposite angles?

  Angles that are vertically opposed to one another are always equal to one another. A vertical angle and the angle to which it is next are also supplementary angles; that is, they sum up to 180 degrees. As an illustration, if two lines connect to form an angle, say X=45°, then the angle's opposite angle is also 45°.

Here consider angle with 31° and 49° triangle is 1. We know that sum of all angles in triangle is add upto 180°. Then,

⇒ 49°+31°+x = 180°

⇒ 80° + x= 180°

⇒x= 180°-80°=100°

Then unknown angle in triangle 1 ia 100°.

Now according to the vertically opposite angle theorem , opposite angles are equal to each other. Then ,

In triangle 2 angle is 100° and 21°. Then missing angle is,

⇒ 100°+21°+missing angle =180°

⇒Missing angle = 180°-100°-21°

⇒Missing angle = 59°

Therefore the answer is 59°.

Keisha pumped 6 gallons of water into her pool each minute for 48 minutes what was the total change in the amount of water in th
Eduardwww [97]

The total change in the amount of water in the pool is 288 gallons.

<h3>What is Volume?</h3>

Volume is a scalar quantity expressing the amount of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface.

Here, Rate of water pumped into her pool = 6 gallons / minute.

          Total Duration = 48 minutes

Total amount of water = Rate X Time

                                     = 6 X 48

                                     = 288 gallons

Thus, the total change in the amount of water in the pool is 288 gallons.
