Answer:
Option D
Step-by-step explanation:
In the first three options we can evaluate the values of x with the help of Sine Rule for all the triangles
The Rule says
Where a , b and c are the sides opposite to the angles A, B and C of any ΔABC.
Hence , in order to determine unknown values of sides or angles , we need any 3 values from all 3 sides and 3 angles in a triangle. First Three options give us three values but the last option gives only 2.
Example
in first option we can apply Sine Rule as
Use Pythagorean Theorem:
a² + b² = c²
"a" is one side of the right triangle.
Its length is: radius of larger circle minus radius of smaller circle: (11 - 3 = 8)
The distance between the center of the circles creates the hypotenuse (17)
8² + b² = 17²
b² = 225
b = 15
Answer: the length of the common external tangent is 15.
I say the answer is B. Bland
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
--- scale factor
Required [missing from the question]:
The ratio of width of the model to the original
From the question, we understand that the scale factor is: 2 : 15
The ratio of the width of the model to the original equals the given scale factor i.e.
Do 17 ounces minus 5.25 ounces and you'll get your answer
