Set up a proportion to answer this question

$\frac{5 ft}{10ft} = \frac{6ft}{x}$

Solve for x by using cross multiplication

10 * 6 = 5 * x
60 = 5 x

x = 12 ft

A dilation a transformation that changes the size of the shape by using scale factor in particular ways .

It stretches or shrinks the actual figure. It produces similar figures.

Since the corresponding sides of similar figures are in proportion.

⇒ It proportionally reduces or enlarges a figure.

Hence, A dilation is a transformation that proportionally reduces or enlarges a figure.

The logo on a recycling bin resembles an equilateral triangle with side lengths of 6 centimeters. Approximate the area of the lo

frozen [14]

Answer:

9 $\sqrt{3}$ cm² or approximately 15.59 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula for the area of an equilateral triangle, A = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4}$ a²

Plug in the side length, 6 cm, as a in the formula:

A = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4}$ (6²)

A = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4}$ (36)

A = 9 $\sqrt{3}$

So, the area of the logo is 9 $\sqrt{3}$ cm² or approximately 15.59 cm²

mixer [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, .

Frederick make 7 × 7 quilt array

This shows that there are seven rows and there are seven columns.

So, the total quilt is

7 × 7 = 49 squares patches

We are told that each of this square patches are 3½ in long

Then, since it is a square patch, it's area is

A = S² = 3½ × 3½ = 12¼ in²

So, each square patch has an area of 12¼in²,

Then, for 49 square patches

The total area of 49 Square patches is

A = 49 × 12¼ = 600.25 in²

So, the area of the whole quilt is 600.25 in²
