Answer:

9 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of each quilt be 'l'.

Given:

Length of green felt (g) = 15 yards

Length of blue felt (b) = 12 yards

Total number of quilts = 3

Now, the length of 3 quilts is given as:

Total\ length=l+l+l=3l ----- (1)

As per question:

Total length = Length of green felt + Length of blue felt

Total length = g+b

Total\ length=15+12=27--------- (2)

Now, comparing equations (1) and (2), we get:

3l=27\\\\l=\frac{27}{3}\\\\l=9\ yards

Hence, each quilt measures 9 yards in length.

The area of a circular trampoline is 112.07 square feet. What is the radius of the trampoline? Round to the nearest hundredth.
Nina [5.8K]
The trampoline is a circle, so you use A=πr².
Plug in 112.07 in for A since it's the area.
Divide both sides by π to get 35.69.
Take the square root to get 5.97.

A ladder is leaning up against a house. The ladder is 20 feet long and the base of the ladder is 12 feet away from the house. Ho
MrRa [10]

Answer:

16 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the ladder=20 feet

Distance from the base of the ladder to the house = 12 feet

You will notice that a wall is vertical and the ladder makes an angle with the horizontal ground(making it the hypotenuse). This is a right triangle problem.

To find the how far up the house can the ladder can reach, we simply find the third side of the right triangle.

From Pythagoras theorem

Hyp^2=Opp^2+Adj^2\\20^2=12^2+Adj^2\\Adj^2=400-144\\Adj^2=256\\Adj=\sqrt{256}=16

The third side of the right triangle is 16. Therefore the ladder leans 16 feet from the ground.
