Step-by-step explanation:
similar triangles means that all angles in one triangle are exactly the same as the angles in the other triangle.
and the lengths of all sides of one triangle have the same scaling factor with the lengths of the sides of the other triangle.
so, when we compare the "features" of the triangles, we see that C corresponds to S, B to R and D to T.
so, DC (50) corresponds to TS (70).
and that means that CB (60) corresponds to SR (11x - 4).
the scaling factor from BCD to RST is 70/50 = 7/5.
that means DC × 7/5 = TS.
and CB × 7/5 = SR :
60 × 7/5 = 11x - 4
12 × 7 = 11x - 4
84 = 11x - 4
88 = 11x
x = 8
26x-10.64
If Thats What Your Looking For
1. This shape is called a parallelogram and it’s area formula is A=W*H, so you would plug in 12 1/3 for H and 17 1/5 for W. The answer would be 215yd.
2. This is a triangle and it’s area formula is A=1/2bh. Plug in 14 as H and 17 for b. The answer would be 119ft.
Answer:
D. w = l − 40; the width increases as the length decreases
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle =
P = 2l + 2w
Where to find the Width, we make w the subject of the formula.
Hence:
P - 2l = 2w
w = P - 2l/2
From the question, P = 80
Hence,
w = 80 - 2l/2
w = 80/2 - 2l/2
w = 40 - l
The width of a rectangle is always the longer side ,hence:
D. w = l − 40; the width increases as the length decreases
