Answer:
5 km
Step-by-step explanation:
It helps to draw a diagram.
The triangle between Stamford, Newport, and Amanda's house is a right triangle with one leg of length 12 and hypotenuse 13. The Pythagorean theorem can be used to find the remaining leg:
13² = 12² + (distance to Newport)²
169 -144 = (distance to Newport)²
√25 = 5 = distance to Newport
Newport is 5 km from Amanda's house.
_____
It can be useful to remember this right triangle. 5-12-13 right triangles show up in a number of algebra and geometry problems.

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the word format of an equation.
Let's right it out in numerical form.

The first part says One fourth the sum of x and 10
The sum of x and 10 would be shown as x + 10, and one fourth of that means that
is multiplying (x + 10).
In this case, identical would mean equal to.
So,
(x + 10) would be = to something.
It says that it is identical to x minus 4 (x - 4).
<u> is the equation.</u>

Answer: Any of the following angles are <u>not</u> congruent to angle 5.
- angle 2
- angle 4
- angle 6
- angle 8
The only exception being that if angle 5 is 90 degrees, then so are the remaining four angles shown above (in fact, all 8 angles are right angles).
========================================================
Explanation:
Angles 2 and 5 are supplementary since line p is parallel to line r. This means angle 2 and angle 5 add to 180 degrees. The two angles are only congruent if both are right angles (aka 90 degree angles); otherwise, they are not congruent angles.
Angle 2 = angle 4 because they are vertical angles. So because these two angles are congruent, and angle 2 does not have the same measure as angle 5, this consequently leads to angle 4 also not being the same measure as angle 5 (unless both are right angles).
Angle 2 = angle 8 because they are alternate interior angles. Following the same logic path as the last paragraph, we see that angles 8 and angle 5 aren't the same measure. Or we could note that angle 5 and angle 8 form a straight angle, so they must add to 180 degrees. The two angles are only congruent if they were 90 degrees each, or otherwise not congruent at all.
Similar logic can also show that angle 6 is not congruent to angle 5.
---------------------------
An alternative path is to find all the angles that are always congruent to angle 5 and they are...
- angle 1 (corresponding angles)
- angle 3 (alternate interior angles)
- angle 7 (vertical angles)
And everything else is not congruent to angle 5.
<span>So the question is how tall would a person be in three cases, 54 inches, 58 inches and 59 inches. Since the height measure are feet and inches and one feet has 12 inches, this is the first case: 54 inches = 4*12 inches + 6 inches = 4 feet and 6 inches = 4'6''. Second case: 58 inches= 4*12 + 10 inches= 4 feet and 10 inches = 4'10'' and third case: 59 inches= 4*12 inches + 11 inches= 4 feet and 11 inches = 4'11''. </span>
