Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of pieces = Length of ribbon/Length of each piece

                              = (13½) ÷ (¾)

Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction

No. = (²⁷/₂) ÷ (¾)

Invert the proper fraction and change division to multiplication

No. = ²⁷/₂ × ⁴/₃

Cancel the 2s

No. = 27 × ⅔

Cancel the 3s

No. = 9 × 2

No. = 18

Sam can cut 18 pieces of ribbon.

Which statements can be concluded from the diagram and used to prove that the triangles are similar by the SAS similarity theore
velikii [3]

Answer:

RS/VU=ST/UT and ∠S≅∠U

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The <u>Side-Angle-Side Similarity Theorem </u>states that: If two sides in one triangle are proportional to two sides in another triangle and the included angle in both are congruent, then the two triangles are similar

In this problem the included angle is

∠S≅∠U

therefore

side RS must be proportional to side VU  and side ST must be proportional to side UT

so

RS/VU=ST/UT

<em>Verify</em>

substitute the given values

12/6=16/8

2=2 -----> is true

therefore

The two sides are proportional
