Eight friends share two pizzas equally. How much of a pizza does each friend get?

Each one will get 2/8. Here's a trick: The number of people is your denominator and the amount of things is your numerator. A common mistake is that you do it backwards (instead of 2/8, someone says it's 8/2). It doesn't make sense to say that because there is not enough pizza for everyone if each person gets 8/2 of the slice.

2/8.

You take two pizzas and divide them by 8.

Triangle DEF (not shown) is similar to ABC shown, with angle B congruent to angle E and angle C congruent to angle F. The length

Answer:

Area of ΔDEF is $45\ cm^2$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

ΔABC and ΔDEF is similar and ∠B ≅ ∠E.

Length of AB = $2\ cm$ and

Length of DE = $6\ cm$

Area of ΔABC = $5\ cm^2$

Solution,

Since, ΔABC and ΔDEF is similar and ∠B ≅ ∠E.

Therefore,

$\frac{Area\ of\ triangle\ 1}{Area\ of\ triangle\ 2} =\frac{AB^2}{DE^2}$

Where triangle 1 and triangle 2 is ΔABC and ΔDEF respectively.

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of the area of both triangles is proportional to the square of the ratio of their corresponding sides.

$\frac{5}{Area\ of\ triangle\ 2} =\frac{2^2}{6^2}\\ \frac{5}{Area\ of\ triangle\ 2}=\frac{4}{36}\\ Area\ of\ triangle\ 2=\frac{5\times36}{4} =5\times9=45\ cm^2$
