The missing figure is attached down
Answer:
The measure of EC is 1 foot
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us revise the cases of similarity
- AAA similarity : two triangles are similar if all three angles in the first triangle equal the corresponding angle in the second triangle
- AA similarity : If two angles of one triangle are equal to the corresponding angles of the other triangle, then the two triangles are similar.
- SSS similarity : If the corresponding sides of the two triangles are proportional, then the two triangles are similar.
- SAS similarity : In two triangles, if two sets of corresponding sides are proportional and the included angles are equal then the two triangles are similar.
From the attached figure
∵ DE // BC
∴ ∠ADE ≅ ABC ⇒ corresponding angles
∴ ∠AED ≅ ACB ⇒ corresponding angles
In Δs ADE and ABC
∵ ∠ADE ≅ ABC ⇒ proved
∵ ∠AED ≅ ACB ⇒ proved
∵ ∠A is a common angle in the two triangles
∴ Δ ADE is similar to triangle ABC by AAA postulate
From the results of similarity the corresponding sides of the triangles are proportion
∴ 
∵ AD = 8 feet
∵ DB = 2 feet
∴ AB = AD + DB
∴ AB = 8 + 2 = 10 feet
∵ AE = 4 feet
By using the proportion statement above 
∴ 
By using cross multiplication
∴ 8 × AC = 10 × 4
∴ 8 AC = 40
Divide both sides by 8
∴ AC = 5 feet
∵ AC = AE + EC
∴ 5 = 4 + EC
Subtract 4 from both sides
∴ 1 = EC
∴ The measure of EC is 1 foot
Omar can make 14 whole dumplings. You change 2 3/4 cups to an improper fraction ( multiply the denominator and add the numerator ) and you get 11/4. Since you need 3/16 cups for one dumpling you have to find the greatest common denominator which is 16. You multiply 4 by 11 to get the numerator and end up with 44/16. Since you need 3/16 for one whole dumping you divide 44 by 3 and get 14.6 repeating. You cannot have a fraction of a dumpling so you round down and get the answer 14.

The first thing we are going to assume for this case is that the tree and the post are located in the same place.
From that place, both cast a shadow in the same direction.
We then have two similar triangles.
Therefore, we have the following relationship:

From here, we clear the value of x.
We have then:
