Answer:
We get value p=16
Step-by-step explanation:
When triangles are similar, the ratio of corresponding sides is equal.
In the given triangles we have to find value of p
We have the ratio: (Can use ratio of any two sides)

Now, putting values and finding p

So, we get value p=16
Answer:
16 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
They climbed 8 meters down
Then 8 meters up to get back to ground level.
Step 2:
8+8=16
Answer:
3.5m
Step-by-step explanation:
A parallelogram has sides 17.3 m and 43.4 m long.
The height corresponding to the 17.3-m base is 8.7 m.
The area of a parallelogram = base × height
= 8.7m × 17.3m
= 150.51m²
Both parallelograms have the same area
Hence, the height, to the nearest tenth of a meter, corresponding to the 43.4-m base is calculated as:
= 150.51m²/43.4m
= 3.4679723502m
Approximately = 3.5m

Answer:
C. 12cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for the perimeter of the rectangle is ...
P = 2(L+W)
34 = 2(n +m)
Solving for m, we get
m = 17 -n . . . . . . . divide by 2, subtract n
__
The Pythagorean theorem gives the relationship between the sides and the hypotenuse
m^2 +n^2 = (n+1)^2
(17 -n)^2 +n^2 = (n +1)^2 . . . . . . substitute for m
289 -34n +n^2 +n^2 = n^2 +2n +1 . . . . eliminate parentheses
n^2 -36n +288 = 0 . . . . . . . put in standard form
(n -12)(n -24) = 0 . . . . . . . . . factor
n = 12 . . . . . . . . . . n=24 is an extraneous solution here
The value of n is 12 cm.
