$\frac{4 quarters}{5 pennies} = \frac{16 quarters}{x pennies} \\ \frac{4quarters*4=16quarters}{5pennies*4=20pennies}$
The answer is fifteen pennies, because 16/4 is 4, so you multiply 5 by 4 to get 20. Hope this helps!

A parallelogram with the sides of 6 and 10 has a area of 30 square root of 2. Find the measure of each angle of the parallelogra

Vinvika [58]

$a=10,b=6,A=30 \sqrt{2} 
\\
\\A=ah_a=ab\sin\theta
\\30 \sqrt{2} =10\times6\times\sin\theta
\\
\\ \sin\theta= \frac{ \sqrt{2} }{2} 
\\
\\ \theta=45^o
\\ \theta_1=180^o -\theta=180^o-45^o=135^o$
