To get the percent of increase, we will follow these steps:
1- get the difference between the two numbers:
difference = 1.8 - 1.2 = 0.6
2- divide the difference from step one by the original number (the number before the increase) and then multiply the quotient by 100 to get the percent as follows:
% of increase = (0.6 / 1.2) * 100 = 50%
Based on the above calculations, the percent of increase in the amount of iron is 50%
Answer:
angle x is equal to 60º so its an acute angle
Step-by-step explanation:
Move the decimal point 3 places to the right

★ ∆ ABC is similar to ∆DEF
★ Area of triangle ABC = 64cm²
★ Area of triangle DEF = 121cm²
★ Side EF = 15.4 cm

★ Side BC

Since, ∆ ABC is similar to ∆DEF
[ Whenever two traingles are similar, the ratio of the areas of two similar triangles is equal to the square of the ratio of their corresponding sides. ]

❍ <u>Putting the</u><u> values</u>, [Given by the question]
• Area of triangle ABC = 64cm²
• Area of triangle DEF = 121cm²
• Side EF = 15.4 cm

❍ <u>By solving we get,</u>






<u>Hence, BC = 11.2 cm.</u>
