Answer: a) 2:1. b) 3. c) Perimeter of ΔEFG=36 Perimeter of ΔHIJ=18. d) 2:1

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Find the ratio of GF and JI. 16:8. Simplify by dividing both by 8 to get 2:1.

b) Set up this equation: 6/16=x/8. Cross-multiply. 6*8=48. Divide by 16. 48/16=3.

c) First find the length of one half of GF by dividing 16 by 2. 16/2=8. Set up the Pythagorean theorem. 8^2+6^2=c^2. Square 8 and 6. 64+36=c^2. Add 64 and 36. 100=c^2. Find the square root of 100. c=10.

EF and EG both measure 10 since they are shown to be congruent. 10+10+16=36.

Next find the length of one half of JI by dividing 8 by 2. 8/2=4. Set up the Pythagorean theorem. Since we know x=3, it will be 4^2+3^2=c^2. Square both 4 and 3. 16+9=c^2. Add 16 and 9. 25=c^2. Find the square root of 25. c=5.

HJ and HI both measure 5 since they are congruent. 5+5+8=18.

d) Find the ratio of the perimeters of ΔEFG and ΔHIJ. 36:18. Simplify by dividing both by 6 to get 6:3. Simplify further by dividing both by 3 to get 2:1.

What’s the degree of x
olga2289 [7]
Answer:
24.23

Step-by-step explanation:
The tan(x) would equal to the opposite side over the adjacent one
So 9/20. To get the degree we need to get the arctan of it, so arctan(9/20) = 24.23

Please help meeeeee :///
eimsori [14]
Wouldn't all the angles equal 180? We've been trying to learn these but I think so. Subtract both numbers by 180 and it should be the answer. Sorry if it's wrong but I'm not sure. I kinda hope this helps you any

Howhowhow?how??? how would you calculate
Liula [17]

Ok sooooooooooo

Lets say your two fractions are

13/26 and 20/40

you can divide the bottom number by the top one and if you get the same answer for both then they are equivalent. For these you get 2 for both, which means they are equivalent.

another example would be if your fractions are

2/5 and 4/10

You can say well 2*2 equals 4 And 5*2 equals ten so these are equivalent fractions.
