Here, Just apply Proportionality Theorem at correct time, with correct proportions, It tells, the ratio of two corresponding arms always equal.

So, 1) AB/BC = AJ/JI
2.5/2.25 = AJ/1.8
AJ = 2.5* 1.8 / 2.25
AJ = 2

2) BC/CD = JI / IH
2.25/CD = 1.8/1.2
CD = 2.25 * 1.2 / 1.8
CD = 1.5

3) CD/DE = IH/HG
1.5/3.5 = 1.2 / HG
HG = 1.2 * 3.5 / 1.5
HG = 2.8

4) For GF, we should use "Pythagoras Theorem"
h² = a² + b²
GF² = 6.5² - 6²
GF² = 42.25 - 36
GF = √6.25
GF = 2.5

5) Perimeter = 2.5 + 2.25 + 1.5 + 3.5 + 6.5 + 2.5 + 2.8 + 1.2 + 1.8 + 2
P = 26.55

6) Area = 1/2 * b * h
A = 1/2 * 9.65 * 10.3
A = 49.70

Hope this helps!

A ball dropped from the top of a building can be modeled by the function
timama [110]

A ball dropped from the top of the building can be modeled by the function f(t)=-16t^2 + 36 , where t represents time in seconds after the ball was dropped. A bee's flight can be modeled by the function, g(t)=3t+4, where t represents time in seconds after the bee starts the flight.

A number is less than one fourth the sum of three times the number and four.
ANEK [815]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If we write the inequality out, we get this:

x <1/4

(

3

x

+

4

)

Now we just need to solve for x. Multiplying both sides by 4 yields:

4

x

<

3

x

+

4

Subtract 3x from both sides:

x

<

4

So any number less than 4 will work!
