<span>The problem says that Donovan is using similar rectangles, so you can calculate the length of the second rectangle, by using the similarity concept.

 We have that the first rectangle </span>is 2 inches wide and 6 inches long, and the second rectangle must has<span> 5 inches wide. Then:

 2/5=6/L  (L: </span>the length of the second rectangle).
<span> 2L=6x5
 2L=30
 L=30/2
 L=15 inches

 H</span><span>ow long must the second rectangle be? 
</span><span>
 The answer is: The second rectangle must be 15 inches long.

Help Pls! I need this fast!
lesya [120]

Answer: 36

Step-by-step explanation:

\overline{AB} \cong \overline{BC} (Triangle ABC is isosceles)

m\angle CAB=m\angle CBA=30^{\circ} (base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent)

\angle MCB=90^{\circ} (In triangle CMB, angles in a triangle add to 180 degrees)

\angle ACM=30^{\circ} (triangle sum theorem)

MB=24 (30-60-90 triangle CMB)

AB=12 (sides opposite congruent angles in a triangle are congruent)

AB=36 (segment addition postulate)

In a group of eighteen people, each person shakes hands once with each other person in the group. How many handshakes will occur
miv72 [106K]

The number of handshakes that will occur in a group of eighteen people if each person shakes hands once with each other person in the group is 153 handshakes

In order to determine the number of handshakes that will occur among 18 people, that is, the number of ways we can choose 2 persons from 18 people.

∴ The number of handshakes = ^{18}C_{2}

^{18}C_{2} = \frac{18!}{(18-2)!2!}

^{18}C_{2} = \frac{18!}{16!2!}

^{18}C_{2} = \frac{18\times17\times16!}{16!\times2!}

^{18}C_{2} = \frac{18\times17}{2\times1}

^{18}C_{2} = \frac{306}{2}

^{18}C_{2} = 153

∴ The number of handshakes = 153 handshakes

Hence. 153 handshakes will occur in a group of eighteen people if each person shakes hands once with each other person in the group.
