Answer: The side A measures 12 centimetres

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the attached picture for details.

The trapezoid is given with dimensions as shown, that is 3 cm, 5 cm, 2 cm and 2 cm. Furthermore, it is now enlarged into another trapezoid with the dimensions given as 20 cm, 8 cm, 8 cm and A cm.

Having been told that the second parallelogram is an expansion of the first one tells us that they are similar trapezoids. Hence, the ratio that makes them similar is derived as follows;

Ratio = 2:8 = 2:8 = 5:20

Ratio = 1:4 = 1:4 = 1:4

Therefore, having determined the ratio by which the trapezoid is enlarged, side A is calculated as follows;

1/4 = 3/A

A = 4 x 3

A = 12 centimetres

Answer:

12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

since you need to find the length of the side "A", you must multiply the length of the corresponding side of the other figure, by the Scale factor.

Then you get that the length of the side "A"

Find the perimeter of the polygon
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

The perimeter of the polygon is 48 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: \angle B \cong \angle D

To find the perimeter of the polygon, we need to find the lengths of the AB, BC, CD and DA

Since, \angle B \cong \angle D and to find the length, from circle theorem, "Two tangents from an external point to a circle are always equal in length".

From this statement we shall conclude,

The length of AB=5+6=11

The length of BC=6+7=13

The length of CD=7+6=13

The length of DA=6+5=11

Thus, the perimeter of the polygon is

\begin{aligned}\text {Perimeter} &=A B+B C+C D+D A \\&=11+13+13+11 \\&=48 \mathrm{cm}\end{aligned}

Hence, the perimeter of the polygon is 48 cm.

The distribution of the test statistic for analysis of variance is the F-distribution. true or false
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

True. See explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Analysis of variance (ANOVA) "is used to analyze the differences among group means in a sample".  

The sum of squares "is the sum of the square of variation, where variation is defined as the spread between each individual value and the grand mean"  

If we assume that we have k groups and on each group from j=1,\dots,k we have k individuals on each group we can define the following formulas of variation:  

SS_{total}=\sum_{j=1}^p \sum_{i=1}^{n_j} (x_{ij}-\bar x)^2  

SS_{between=Treatment}=SS_{model}=\sum_{j=1}^p n_j (\bar x_{j}-\bar x)^2  

SS_{within}=SS_{error}=\sum_{j=1}^p \sum_{i=1}^{n_j} (x_{ij}-\bar x_j)^2  

And we have this property  

SST=SS_{between}+SS_{within}  

The degrees of freedom for the numerator on this case is given by df_{num}=k-1 where k represent the number of groups.  

The degrees of freedom for the denominator on this case is given by df_{den}=df_{between}=N-k.  

And the total degrees of freedom would be df=N-1

And the we can find the F statistic F=\frac{MSR}{MSE}
