In the diagram below, \overrightarrow{QR}

Mathematics
1 answer:
Mandarinka [93]3 years ago
4 0

We have been given a diagram of two similar triangles. We are asked to find the measure of segment BD.

We can see that segment AB and CD are perpendicular to segment BD as they form right angle with BD.

We have been given that segment QR is perpendicular to BD, so segment AB, CD and QR are parallel.

Using parallel lines properties, we can see that angle BAQ is equal to DCQ and angle AQB is equal to angle CQD and both angles have a right triangle.

So both triangles are similar. We know that corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional.

\frac{QD}{CD}=\frac{BQ}{AB}

\frac{QD}{19.2}=\frac{15}{32}

\frac{QD}{19.2}\cdot 19.2=\frac{15}{32}\cdot 19.2

QD=9

BD=BQ+QD

BD=15+9

BD=24

Therefore, the length of segment BD will be 24 units.

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

P\text{Student will be from Kenilworth}\approx 0.256

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that that there are 8 boys from Wilmette, 5 girls from Kenilworth, 9 girls from Wilmette, 5 boys from Glencoe, 5 boys from Kenilworth and 7 girls from Glenoce.

The total number of students from Kenilworth is 5 boys plus 5 girls that is 10 students.

The total number of students in the class would be 8+5+9+5+5+7=39

\text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of possible outcomes}}

P\text{Student will be from Kenilworth}=\frac{\text{Number of student from Kenilworth}}{\text{Total number of students}}

P\text{Student will be from Kenilworth}=\frac{10}{39}

P\text{Student will be from Kenilworth}=0.2564102564

P\text{Student will be from Kenilworth}\approx 0.256

Therefore, the probability, that the student will be from Kenilworth, is approximately 0.256.
