<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2 />

The missing diagram is shown below. Remember that shapes are similar if you can turn one into the other by moving, rotating, flipping, or scaling. So this means you can make the object bigger or smaller. So in this case, we know that ΔABC is similar to ΔDEF. If so, we can establish the following proportion:

\frac{h}{56.7}=\frac{17.2}{52.4} \\ \\ h=56.7\times \frac{17.2}{52.4} \\ \\ h=18.61m

Our goal is to find x. So by Pythagorean theorem:

x=\sqrt{17.2^2+18.61^2} \\ \\ \boxed{x=25.34m}

Conclusion:

<em>ΔABC ~ΔDEF</em>

<em>Distance across the river is 25.34m </em>

Alik [6]
45th percentile means that 45% of the data fall below that number while 55% (that is, 100-45) fall above it.

Now, arranging the number in ascending order;
$60, $85, $95, $105, $120, $145, $155, $175, $190, $215, $235, $240, $260, $285, $325

The total number of counts = 15
Then,
Index = 15*45% = 15*0.45 = 6.75

Round up,
Index = 7

The,
7th number = $155

Therefore, 45th percentile value of the data = $155

Divide 0.8 by 40 to get x.

x=50.

7. If he needs 3 eggs for 30 cookies, we divide 120 by 30 to get 4.
