m = 9 and n = 15

Find the length( l ) of the leg in the large right triangle using Pythagoras' identity

l = √(25² - 20²) = √225 = 15

the outer and inner right triangles are similar hence the ratios of corresponding sides are equal

\frac{25}{n} = \frac{15}{m} = \frac{20}{12}

using \frac{25}{n} = \frac{20}{12} (cross-multiply )

20n = 300 ( divide both sides by 20 )

n = 15

using \frac{15}{m} = \frac{20}{12} ( cross-multiply )

20m = 180 ( divide both sides by 20 )

m = 9

Answer:

The answers are:

m = 9   and     n = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

m/15 = n/25 = 12/20

  m/15 = 12/20

  m/15 = 3/5

  5m = 45

  m = 9


  n/25 = 12/20

  n/25 = 3/5

  5n = 75

  n = 15

The answer is 79 because 9/10 divided by 71.1 is 79. And if you want to check, you can multiply 9/10 by 79, which will give you 71.1. I hope this helped :)

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

0.0000007

And if we count the number of zeros before the number 7, we can rewrite the number like this:

7x10^{-7}

We cansolve this problem also counting the number of positions that we need to move the decimal point to the right in order to obtain the first number (7)

And the best option would be:

B. 7 x 10-7

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following number given:

0.0000007

And if we count the number of zeros before the number 7, we can rewrite the number like this:

7x10^{-7}

We cansolve this problem also counting the number of positions that we need to move the decimal point to the right in order to obtain the first number (7)

And the best option would be:

B. 7 x 10-7

victus00 [196]

Answer:

The area of larger triangle is 48 ft².

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the area of triangle formula is A = 1/2 × base × height. Then, you have to substitute the following values :

area =  \frac{1}{2}  \times b \times h

let \: b = 12,h = 8

area =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 12 \times 8

area =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 96

area = 48  \: {feet}^{2}
