Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What you are trying to do is a nice way to solve this problem. Without knowing any physics, you are using what math you know to get the answer. You are actually very close to being correct, and you are right. You do have to divide by 60.
Here's why and it is the one bit of physics you have to know.
The speed is km/hour. That word hour is the culprit. Your time is in minutes and you have to get it into hours. In physics, the units have to be consistent.
So ...
b1 = 19 minutes which is 19 min [1 hour / 60 minutes] = 19/60 = 0.31667 hour
b2 = 26 minutes which is 26 min [ 1 hour/60 minutes] = 26/60 = 0.4333 hour
h = 40 km/hour
Area = (0.31667 hour + 0.4333 hour)*40 km/hour /2
Area = 0.75 hour * 40 km/hr //2
Area = 15 km
Okay lets start with "what is a kite?" A kite is a shape which has 4 sides of which 2 pairs of two sides are equal and the center angle is 90 degrees. So mark up your drawing with tick marks to show that segment DF and segment FG are equal (just put a little tick mark on those segments). Similarly segments DH and GH are equal so put two tick marks on them to show they are equal. Mark the center angle with a little square to show it is 90 degrees. Let me give you some hints on the answers. a. is given like you have b. is what you marked on your drawing and is the definition of a kite e. is definition of congruency or even substitution f. Reflexive property - remember it just says that something is congruent to itself. g. looks like the HL property h. you can say that because of CPCTC.
Let
x--------> the unknown scale size
we know that
N 1---------> x
N 2---------> 1
N 3---------> 0.937
N 4--------->0.878
scale factor=0.937/0.878------> 1.0672
to obtain the size N 3 ----> multiply the size N 4 by 1.0672
size N 3=1.0672*0.878-----> 0.937
so
to obtain the size N 2 ----> multiply the size N 3 by 1.0672
size N 2=1.0672*0.937------> 1
to obtain the size N 1 ----> multiply the size N 2 by 1.0672
size N =1.0672*1------> 1.0672
hence
x=1.0672-------> x=1.067
the answer is the unknown scale size is 1.067
it is 56
because you need to break the figure into two parts
5 x 4 = 20
4 x 9 = 36
