LA=3.5; AY=7
LW=?

LW=LA+AW
AW=?

Let's analyze triangles LAY and YAW
1) Triangle LAY
Angle LAY is 90°
Suppose Angle ALY is x
The angle LYA is the complement of x, for example y:
x+y=90°→y=90°-x

2) Triangle YAW
Angle AYW is the complement of angle LAY (y), then the angle AYW must be equal to x.
Angle YAW is 90°, because the angle LAY is 90°

The triangles LAY and YAW are similars, because they have to congruent angles:
Angle LAY = 90° = Angle YAW
Angle ALY = x = Angle AYW
Then the sides of triangles LAY and YAW must be proportionals:
AW/AY=AY/LA
Replacing the known values:
AW/7=7/3.5
AW/7=2
Solving for AW. Multiplying both sides of the equation by 7:
7(AW/7)=7(2)
AW=14

Now:
LW=LA+AW
LW=3.5+14
LW=17.5

Answer: LW=17.5 units

A floor 10m by 40m is covered by square tiles 20cm. How many tiles are needed to cover the floor?
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

10,000

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the area of the floor in cm^2 and divide by the are of 1 tile in cm^2.

1 m = 100 cm

10 m = 1000 cm

40 m = 4000 cm

area of floor = LW = 1000 cm * 4000 cm = 4,000,000 cm^2

area of tile = s^2 = (20 cm)^2 = 400 cm^2

number of tiles = 4,000,000/400 = 10,000

Answer: 10,000 tiles

The number that is missing on the number line given is B. -5.

<h3>What number if missing?</h3>

The number that is missing is said to be between -negative 10 and 0.

The intervals between the numbers is 5 which means that only 5s are on this number line.

From the given option, the only number that is in that range is -5 which is less than 0 but more than -10.

The missing number on the number line is therefore -5.

Full question is:
