Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: In triangle ABC, ST║AC, SB=10 ft, BT=9 ft and CT=2.7 ft.

Triangle proportionality theorem: If a line segment parallel to a side of a triangle then the line segments divides the remaining sides proportionally.

Using triangle proportionality theorem we get

\dfrac{SA}{SB}=\dfrac{CT}{BT}

\dfrac{SA}{10}=\dfrac{2.7}{9}

On cross multiplication we get

9\times SA=2.7\times 10

9SA=27

Divide both sides by 9.

SA=3

The length of SA is 3ft.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Answer: The measure of the supplement is 150 degrees. The other angle is 30 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

angle: x/5

x+x/5=180

5x+x/5=180

6x/5=180

x=180(5/6)

x=150

Other angle: 150/5=30

or 180-150=30

Dear Ajtocute, let's have x=9 Multiply 7 by 9 to get 63. Then, you divide 63 by 7 to get back to 9. You just cancel out the multiplication with division.
