Answer:
The shortest possible length for the bypass road is 1,275 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure with letters to better understand the problem
we know that
If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent
In this problem triangles ABC and CDB are similar by AA Similarity Theorem
so
substitute the given values
solve for DB
therefore
The shortest possible length for the bypass road is the distance DB (perpendicular distance from right angle to the hypotenuse triangle ABC)
Answer:
16 units
Step-by-step explanation:
this rectangle is nice to us. its side lines are clearly parallel to the coordinate axis.
A starts at x=1, y=2.
B is straight above with x=1, y=7
so, how long is AB ? it is just the difference in y direction 7-2=5.
C is then on the same y height as B, and is just a bit to the right (bigger x value) with x=4, y=7
what is the distance BC ? just the difference in x 4-1=3.
since it is a rectangle, the other 2 sides are a "copy" of these first 2 sides.
so, another 5 and 3.
therefore, the perimeter of the rectangle is
2×5 + 2×3 = 16 units of the coordinate system.
