Answer:
D. about 8.5 mi
Step-by-step explanation:
To go from Aesha to Josh, you go 6 units right and 6 units up.
Each unit is a mile, so you go 6 miles right and 6 miles up.
Think of each 6 mile distance as a leg of a right triangle, and the direct distance from one place to the other as the hypotenuse of the right triangle. Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
The 6-mile legs are a and b. c is the hypotenuse.
(6 mi)^2 + (6 mi)^2 = c^2
c^2 = 36 mi^2 + 36 mi^2
c^2 = 72 mi^2
c = sqrt(72) mi
c = sqrt(36 * 2) mi
c = 6sqrt(2) mi
c = 6(1.4142) mi
c = 8.5 mi
Answer:
207 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Because ΔPQR ≅ΔSTU and the longest side in the ΔPQR is RP then the longest side in ΔSTU must be SU = 92 cm
Perimeter of triangle PQR is
P(ΔPQR) = 36+48+24 = 108 cm
Because the triangles are are similar their sides are in proportion.
But how much bigger did the second triangle get?...is (92/48) times bigger
P(ΔSTU) = 180*(92/48) = 207 cm
...you can also use proportions to find each side and then find the perimeter
TU = 24*92 /48 = 46
TS = 36*92/48 = 69
SU = 92
P(ΔSTU) = 92+69+46 =207 cm
*the triangles are not drawn to scale
