Answer: Length = 10 feet and width = 8.5 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the width of the floor.
Then length of the floor =
Given : The area of the floor = 85 square feet
We know that the area of a rectangle is given by :-
But dimension cannot be negative
So, the width of the floor =
And the length of the floor =
Answer: 15 pongs you say?
Step-by-step explanation:
Mapping the triangle on one another simply means you use rigid transformations, which involve scaling. So the second triangle is congruent.
Since 3 is the shortest side, 27 pairs with three, so:
27/3 = 9
The second triangle is 9 times larger.
Using this we can do:
5 * 9 = 45
6 * 9 = 54
since 6 is the largest side, 54 is our answer! Or is it?
Note that this is a right triangle, so we use the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse.
=
so 9*sqrt(34) is our answer
